1. A computer-implemented method of managing devices at an information handling system, the method comprising:
identifying, by a remote access controller (RAC) of a private cloud server, a plurality of devices of the information handling system, the plurality of devices in communication with the RAC;
identifying, by the RAC, a plurality of sensors at the private cloud server, the plurality of sensors in communication with the RAC;
receiving, at the RAC, from one or more of the sensors of the plurality of sensors that are at the private cloud server, telemetry data indicating health characteristics of one or more of the devices of the plurality of devices of the information handling system;
determining, by the RAC, that the telemetry data is time insensitive;
exposing, by the RAC serving as an internet of things (IoT) proxy, the plurality of devices to an external IoT platform in communication with the RAC, including:
streaming, by the RAC and to the IoT platform in response to the telemetry data being time sensitive, the telemetry data; and
receiving, by the RAC and from the IoT platform, a response to a sensor signal sequence of the streamed telemetry data, the sensor signal sequence associated with a particular device of the plurality of devices, the sensor signal sequence detected by the IoT platform; and
adjusting, by the RAC at the private cloud server and based on the received response, one or more parameters of the particular device at the information handling system.
