Python MQTT Broker integration with any Application

MQTT Broker is the central server that manages all the communication between the edge devices, collect data from them and ensures the Quality of Service in message delivery. At the same time the MQTT Broker helps analyse the MQTT messages received from the edge devices. In addition, the python component around the Broker & Platform helps integrate to any application.

IoT Platform

The IoT Platform is a SaaS based highly scalable architecture which can be used to connect millions of devices. The IoT Platform also supports multi tenancy by which you can provide solutions to any number of devices. Besides that, the Platform provides an individual customer access to manage their devices and create rules for automation between their devices. The platform in turn provides a powerful API interface which can be used to build web and mobile applications over the platform.

Extendable MQTT Broker

The MQTT Broker is a standalone server which supports all operating system. Above all, the python modules of the MQTT Broker can be extended by connecting to any big data engine. Few of the ready to use Python interfaces are MongoDB Connector & ElasticSearch Connector. Another set of python interfaces which can be used to extend the MQTT Broker include, Custom UI, Custom storage, Custom scheduler, Custom Data Store, Custom Authentication. For the detailed view on python mqtt interfaces see MQTT help documentation.

Something is missing ??

YES… Even though the above components can be integrated into any of the manager application, these application needs a standalone monitoring and server management. The existing Device manager and IoT Applications vendors will be more than happy if they can integrate these applications into their application.

When used as a separate component.

• – Multiple set up process.
• – API Control for every operation.
• – Separate Data Storage.
• – No control over the MQTT Broker process

MQTT Broker as an integral Component

Keeping this in mind, we today announce a variant of MQTT Broker where can be added as one of the components into your application. You will be able to do the following.

• – Start / Stop the MQTT Broker from your core application.
• – Know about the client connects and disconnections, the clients IP address, passwords used and the will details.
• -You should know about the messages published from the edge devices.
• – Think about the subscription details of each device
• – Know about the message propagation to individual edge devices
• – The acknowledgement status for each message sent to each device.
• – Send message to each device individually or as a group
• – Control over the authentication tokens.

You can integrate this MQTT Broker component into any of your application. The component can provide more functional communication between the component and your application based on the need.
