MQTT - A practical protocol for the Internet of Things
The document discusses the MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) protocol, highlighting its importance for the Internet of Things (IoT) by enabling lightweight, real-time messaging between connected devices. It covers the protocol's functionality, including publish/subscribe mechanisms, quality of service levels, and use cases in various smart applications such as healthcare, homes, and logistics. Additionally, it emphasizes MQTT's capability to operate over unreliable networks, making it suitable for resource-constrained devices in IoT environments.

- 35. PickMeUp big ideas - Publish a retained “presence message” on connect, use last will and testament (LWT) to clear ! - Use retained messages if you want late-joining subscribers to get data instantly (ex. driver position, requests) ! - Set up a topic space friendly to wildcards (ex. <app>/<type>/<id>/<field>) ! - QoS 0 = information updates, chat (things we can lose) - QoS 1 = requests, request accepts (important, but client can handle dups) - QoS 2 = inbox messages, payment (important, duplicates problematic)
