Apparatus and associated methods relate to dynamically configuring an Internet of Things (IoT) device and a processor interfacing the IoT device. The processor captures a specific one or more of a plurality of deployment configuration templates for the IoT. The IoT device is then configured by the processor based, at least in part, on the one or more of the plurality of deployment configuration templates captured. The processor then deploys software for use by the processor to interface with the IoT device configured. The software deployed is determined based on the one or more of the plurality of deployment configuration templates captured.
