eWON Flexy supports MQTT for data acquisition

HMS Industrial Networks announces that their IIoT gateway – eWON Flexy (all models including the new Flexy 205) now supports Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol – a simple and lightweight messaging protocol aimed at minimizing network traffic and device resource requirements.

 

Flexy support MQTT protocol

 

Initially created in 1999 to help oil and gas distribution firms control their pipelines effectively, MQTT has recently seen increased popularity because of the exponential growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the need to facilitate communication between low-powered smart devices.

Designed to facilitate the transmission of large volumes of data to numerous servers and client devices constrained by low bandwidth, high latency, or unreliable networks, MQTT is ideal for dynamic communication environments. As the name indicates, the main purpose of the MQTT protocol is telemetry, also known as remote monitoring.

Learn how eWON Flexy users already took advantage of the protocol and started to use it in their projects.
