What is MQTT?

MQTT is designed as a publish-subscribe messaging protocol at its core, enabling various devices and applications to exchange data efficiently. One of the critical features of MQTT is its lightweight nature, making it highly suitable for resource-constrained devices and low-bandwidth networks. MQTT uses a binary messaging format, minimizing the overhead associated with message transmission and ensuring efficient use of network resources. This makes it ideal for embedded systems such as the KIWIboards, where optimized resource utilization is paramount.

How does MQTT work on KIWIboards?

The MQTT protocol operates on a client-server architecture, where clients (devices or applications) communicate with a central server known as the MQTT broker. The broker facilitates message exchange between clients based on the publish-subscribe model.

In this model, clients can act as either publishers or subscribers. Publishers are responsible for sending messages (or "publishing") to specific topics, while subscribers receive messages by subscribing to topics of interest. The broker then routes messages from publishers to subscribers based on the topic subscriptions, ensuring that relevant data reaches the intended recipients.

This architecture is particularly well-suited for devices like the KIWIboards, as it allows for efficient and organized communication within a network of interconnected devices.

Benefits for Customers:

The adoption of MQTT offers numerous benefits for customers across various industries:
