Talk:
MQTT and Apache Pulsar for IoT: Powering the Connected Vehicle

This presentation explores robust messaging solutions for the Internet of Things, focusing on MQTT and Apache Pulsar. We’ll begin with MQTT as the de facto lightweight pub/sub protocol for edge communication, detailing its strengths and limitations. Then, we’ll dive into Apache Pulsar, a scalable, durable streaming platform ideal for IoT backend infrastructure, highlighting its unique architecture. Finally, we’ll examine how MQTT and Pulsar can be combined, particularly through MQTT-on-Pulsar (MoP), to create a unified IoT data streaming pipeline.
