IoT Solutions | MQTT ANYWHERE A SIM-based Low Power Wide Area IoT communication service. This IoT communication service operates across 600+ GSM carriers in 190 countries around the world without the need for cellular data. Supporting 2G, 3G, LTE and LTE-M, MQTT Anywhere can be used within any type of IoT device to send and receive MQTT-SN messages using either USSD or UDP protocols as a transport mechanism. MQTT HERE A LoRaWAN cloud infrastructure providing control over device traffic by converting UDP traffic to MQTT. MQTT Here removes the complexity of harvesting data from a private LoRaWAN network and makes it easy to get the data into enterprise systems. A key benefit of using MQTT Here is the ability to capture traffic from a LoRaWAN gateway in minutes and manage it as MQTT messages. Our carrier grade MQTT Broker then prepares your messages to pass into 3rd party enterprise systems and IoT platforms. Thingstream is a member of the LoRaWAN Alliance and operates a fully hosted, scalable LoRaWAN cloud infrastructure comprising the required LoRaWAN Network, Join and Application servers. MQTT Here is available in a simple subscription model and offers out-of-the-box support for a range of popular LoRaWAN gateways and devices. MQTT NOW Cloud-based MQTT integration for IP devices Thingstream’s MQTT Now is a carrier grade MQTT broker with unique data enrichment and management capability for enterprise IoT deployments. Designed to enable IoT devices which require TCP-IP communication. Data Flow Manager Flow-based visual programming Network edge intelligence, programming and data management made easy
