Abstract
A technology is described for distributed querying of computing hubs for device-generated data. In one example, computing hubs may provide a storage service to devices included in a local device network, and the devices may send device-generated data to the computing hubs to be stored by the storage service. A distributed query may be initiated by identifying the computing hubs that have the device-generated data stored on the computing hubs and sending a message containing query instructions to the computing hubs. The query instructions, when executed on the computing hubs, retrieve the device-generated data from the storage service included on the computing hubs, and the computing hubs may send the device-generated data to a service provider environment.
