Choosing the Right Data-Based Protocols for Your ESP32 Projects
In this chapter, we embark on a pivotal journey to empower your ESP32 projects with the most suitable data-based protocols. This chapter delves into the fundamental understanding of essential protocols that drive the communication backbone of IoT systems. We will explore key protocols such as Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT), and webhooks, equipping you with the knowledge to make informed decisions in selecting the right protocol for your ESP32 projects.
Our exploration begins with a comprehensive exploration of HTTP. You will gain insights into HTTP’s request-response mechanism for seamless communication between ESP32 devices and web servers.
The journey continues with a deep dive into the MQTT protocol. We will delve into MQTT’s publish-subscribe (pub-sub) architecture for real-time IoT communication and implement MQTT on ESP32 devices, enabling dynamic...
