The IBM Watson IoT platform, like the other platforms we have looked at, provides an end-to-end platform for building IoT solutions. It is a fully-managed, cloud-hosted service that can process data from millions of devices and generate some value from it.
IBM Watson IoT primarily uses the MQTT messaging protocol for communication.
The following are the features offered by IBM Watson IoT:
- Device management: Using the device management service, we can perform device actions such as rebooting or updating firmware, receiving device diagnostics and metadata, or performing bulk device addition and removal.
- Responsive, scalable connectivity: Uses the industry-standard MQTT protocol (OASIS ratified) to connect devices and applications. MQTT is designed for the efficient exchange of data to and from devices in real time.
- Secure communication: Securely receive data from...
