Things, devices, and dashboards are highly coupled with each other in every project. For example, for even a small project, we require a Thing and a device to get onboard the cloud platform. Is it enough to just configure a Thing and a device? No – a dashboard is also mandatory, from which the user can give input to the Thing and over which the system can show Thing data for user visualization.

However, integrations are a more optional component, with use cases varying from project to project and only being used by developers when they want to connect any non-compatible device to the Arduino...
