MQTT
The ability to define data at the edge device is an enterprise challenge. Traditional industrial networks are designed to store data on-premise or within a centralized hub. Retrieving and analyzing data in real-time, at the edge device, requires specialized expertise. Fortunately, having a network partner like Cirrus Link Solutions, allows an enterprise to implement IIoT…

An MQTT server uses a machine-to-machine protocol called Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT). This protocol is designed to facilitate lightweight publish/subscribe message transportation for low-bandwidth, high-latency networks. It minimizes network bandwidth and resource requirements while ensuring reliability by keeping packet headers as small as possible. MQTT servers are utilized for a variety of IoT devices,…
