MQTT Adapter For SAP NetWeaver® PI/PO

 

MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is a connectivity protocol designed as an extremely lightweight publish/subscribe messaging transport. MQTT is excellent for connections with remote locations and where network bandwidth is at a premium.  

The main reasons enterprises chose MQTT over proprietary alternatives:

MQTT has been used in sensors communicating to a broker via satellite link, over occasional dial-up connections with healthcare providers, and in a range of home automation and small device scenarios.  MQTT is also ideal for mobile applications becasue of its small size, low power usage, minimized data packets, and efficeint distribution of information to one or many receivers.
