About MQTT

Message Queuing Telemetry Transport began at IBM in 1999 to monitor oil pipelines and became ISO/IEC 20922 in 2016. Its lightweight publish subscribe model with quality of service levels made it the dominant internet of things protocol, running everywhere from Facebook Messenger to factory sensors.
