The Show Preview presents glimpses of the automation products, devices, software and technologies that would be on display at the Automation Expo 2018 (August 29-September 01, 2018 – BCEC, Goregaon, Mumbai).

MQTT is fast becoming one of the main protocols for IoT (internet of things) deployments.

Message Queue Telemetry Transport – as its name suggests, it’s a protocol for transporting messages between two points, but what makes MQTT so special is its super lightweight architecture, which is ideal for scenarios where bandwidth is not optimal.

The MQTT high-level architecture is primarily divided into two parts – a broker and a client. A broker acts as the heart of the architecture with capabilities of both subscriber and publisher. It is the point of contact for all clients. A broker’s primary job is to queue and transmit messages from a publisher client to the subscriber client. However, it can also possess heavier capabilities (such as SSL certification, logs, database storage, etc), based on requirements, set-up, and the broker service used.
