Conceptual Overview

A Digital and Technology Consultancy

Device Connectivity

1. IP Capable Devices

• Devices that can communicate

directly to the Internet

2. Existing Devices

• May or may not be capable of

communicating to the Internet

• May not have support for one of the

available Protocols

3. Low Power Devices

• Devices that do not directly connect

to Internet such as Bluetooth, RFID

A Digital and Technology Consultancy

Device Connectivity

Protocol Support1. HTTP

• Straight forward, familiar protocol

• Must use polling for Cloud to Device messages

• Single device only

2. MQTT - Message Queue Telemetry Transport

• Binary Protocol – more compact than HTTP

• Single device only

• Uses port 8883 which may cause problems on

some networks

3. AMQP - Advanced Message Queuing Protocol

• Binary Protocol - more compact than HTTP

• Larger foot print than HTTP and MQTT

• Multiple device support

A Digital and Technology Consultancy

Device Connectivity

Two Types of Gateways1. Field Gateway

• Intermediary in the field between

devices and the cloud

• Protocol Translation

• Sensor Data Aggregation

2. Cloud Gateway

• Accepts/Processes requests from

field gateway or devices

• Examples:

• Azure IoT Hubs

• Azure Event Hubs
