This week, our guest is Dominik Obermaier, CTO of HiveMQ. HiveMQ helps companies connect devices to the internet by enabling fast, secure, efficient, scalable, and reliable bi-directional data movement between devices and the Cloud.

In this talk, we dive deep into the IoT protocol landscape as we focus on MQTT and the surrounding standards in enabling software. We also explored the critical role of open standards and open-source software in an efficient and dynamic marketplace that promotes innovation.

Key Questions:

  • What is an IoT protocol, and how does it differ from a standard and connectivity technology?
  • What are the different MQTT alternatives for communication with devices?
  • How has the functionality of MQTT changed over time?
  • How do you define the appropriate communication protocol for particular use cases?
