WizFi310 MQTT Example

MQTT​

MQTT is a light weight messaging protocol for use on top of the TCP/IP protocol. It is designed for connections with remote locations where a "small code footprint" is required or the network bandwidth is limited.
It is a communication protocol which almost can link all networked objects with the external, and it is used as a sensor.
