MQTT (Message Queue Telemetry Transport) is a lightweight message protocol used to connect a wide variety of IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) and industrial automation devices using a publish/subscribe model for communications. MQTT is commonly used for connecting sensor networks and as a standard embedded interface on next generation industrial automation equipment and devices, especially in widely distributed applications. A typical architecture for is that such equipment and devices publish data to a centralized MQTT broker (in the cloud or hosted on premise).
The MQTT Client driver enables TOP Server as an MQTT translator, providing a reliable method for reading data from any MQTT broker by client applications such as HMI, SCADA, Historian, MES, ERP, and custom applications via TOP Server’s standard client interfaces including AVEVA SuiteLink, OPC UA and OPC DA.
