When the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol was invented over two decades ago, its creators perhaps didn’t realise the widespread applications it would become central to, across all industries.
That’s because the MQTT protocol has become the de facto standard for sharing messages across connected devices — also known as the Internet of Things (IoT). It provides the means for IoT sensors, including cameras, to communicate with each other across smart cities, smart buildings, and in different verticals including retail, healthcare, and manufacturing.
