Smart Manufacturing by Industry

HiveMQ is the enterprise MQTT platform that lays a powerful foundation for Industry 4.0. It solves data connectivity and interoperability challenges across a variety of manufacturing industries, including automotive, chemical, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical.

Why MQTT for Smart Manufacturing

Efficient data collection, communication, and control are key for smart manufacturing. MQTT is a lightweight and efficient protocol, which ensures real-time data exchange with minimal bandwidth consumption, critical for monitoring and controlling industrial assets and processes.

Real Time

MQTT minimizes latency, enabling near-instantaneous communication and efficient real-time data exchange between devices.

Multi-Point

Event-Driven Architecture

The event-driven nature of MQTT ensures data is transmitted as events occur instead of at fixed intervals, leading to better decision-making.

/sb-assets/f/243938/150x150/fc3b667a55/unified-namespace.svg

Data Aggregation

Coupled with UNS, MQTT can aggregate data from various sources, including legacy systems and modern IoT devices, into a unified platform.

/sb-assets/f/243938/64x64/476139795a/mqtt-client-library.svg

Edge Optimized

MQTT is well-suited for the edge, reducing latency and bandwidth usage, and allowing for faster, real-time decision-making on the factory floor​.

/sb-assets/f/243938/150x150/7e734b2339/reliable-black.svg

Reliable

MQTT ensures reliable message delivery with different Quality of Service (QoS) levels, making it suitable for critical industrial applications.

/sb-assets/f/243938/64x64/927cc2cd2b/security.svg

Secure

MQTT incorporates robust security features including encryption, access control, and authentication to protect manufacturing data.

Low Bandwidth

MQTT's lightweight design and publish/subscribe model make it highly efficient for environments with limited bandwidth.

Efficiency

Energy Efficient

MQTT's efficient data transmission methods help reduce the energy consumption of resource-constrained sensors and devices.

/sb-assets/f/243938/64x64/c74269d3c9/seamless-interation.svg

Protocol-Agnostic

MQTT is protocol-agnostic and works with various communication protocols, for seamless integration across diverse systems and devices.
