MQTT Client
Product Overview
The MQTT Client driver provides a seamless, secure, and reliable data exchange between devices that utilize the MQTT protocol and client applications.
MQTT is a lightweight message protocol that connects to a wide variety of industrial Internet of Things (IoT) and industrial automation devices. MQTT is often used to connect sensor networks and is increasingly embedded on next generation industrial automation devices. In many scenarios, MQTT transmits data from these devices to the Cloud.
The MQTT Client driver is a user-friendly out-of-the-box MQTT to OPC UA translator. It securely accesses otherwise siloed data and transmits it to Kepware. Users can then integrate this data with data collected from traditional industrial automation assets—such as PLCs, sensors, and databases—to create a single source of consolidated plant floor data.
