The Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol is the topic of the New York Times article, “A Messenger for the Internet of Things.” MQTT defines a lightweight reliable messaging transport protocol for the Machine-to-Machine (M2M)/IoT marketplace. The new OASIS MQTT TC will develop a standardized version of the protocol for use in connecting the rapidly expanding physical world of sensors, actuators, phones, and tablets with established software processing technologies. Cisco, Eclipse Foundation, Eurotech, IBM, Kaazing, M2Mi, Red Hat, Software AG, TIBCO, and other members are participating in the MQTT TC.
