MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) is a lightweight publish-subscribe messaging protocol designed for low-bandwidth, high-latency, or unreliable networks. It is widely used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications to connect sensors, devices, and smart home systems to servers and each other, valued by embedded and IoT developers for its minimal overhead and reliable delivery options. Brokers like Mosquitto and cloud services such as AWS IoT Core implement MQTT to route messages between devices.
