[Audio] $PPTXTitle How IoT devices exchange data Device-to-device and device-to-cloud flows enable automation and insight Model choice shapes latency, bandwidth, reliability, and security Direct control: Request-Response One client requests; one server responds (query or command) Best for real-time status checks and actuator control Event-driven scale: Publish-Subscribe Publishers send to topics; subscribers receive matching updates Decouples endpoints; supports many-to-many messaging (e.g., MQTT) Work distribution: Push-Pull and Exclusive Pair Push-Pull: producers push data; consumers pull for processing Exclusive Pair: dedicated link for private, reliable device pairing Introduction to IoT Communication.

[Audio] Introduction to IoT Communication $PPTXTitle Enable IoT interactions Support device-to-device and device-to-cloud data exchange. Fit both commands (control) and events (telemetry). Shape system qualities Drive latency, reliability, and message delivery guarantees. Determine scaling limits: 10s vs 10,000s of devices. Guide architecture choices Decide patterns: request-response, pub-sub, push-pull, pairs. Influence protocol fit (HTTP/CoAP, MQTT, AMQP, BLE)..

[Audio] Core IoT Communication Models $PPTXTitle Direct exchange Client sends a request; server returns a response. Tight coupling: both sides must be online together. Client-server fit Common for device-to-cloud APIs (HTTP/REST, CoAP). Simple addressing: one endpoint, clear ownership and roles. Real-time queries & control Low-latency reads: status, configuration, device capabilities. Command/ack flows: actuate now, confirm success or failure. Design considerations Scale with caching, retries, and timeouts to avoid blocking. Secure with authN/authZ and TLS; log every transaction..

[Audio] Core IoT Communication Models $PPTXTitle Smart home status checks – Apps query locks, lights, thermostats for current state. – Low latency control: arm alarm, toggle switch, setpoint update. Industrial control systems PLCs request measurements; devices return values deterministically. Command-response for start/stop, set thresholds, acknowledge alarms. Remote sensor data retrieval – Poll gateways for latest readings when dashboards refresh. – On-demand history pulls for troubleshooting and reporting..

[Audio] Core IoT Communication Models $PPTXTitle Topic-based messaging Publishers send events to named topics, not to devices. Subscribers receive updates for topics they choose. Loose coupling Producers and consumers evolve independently; no direct addressing. A broker often routes messages and manages subscriptions. Scales for IoT events One-to-many fan-out enables efficient broadcast-like updates. Supports event-driven workflows: alerts, automation, telemetry streams. Typical fit Many devices, intermittent links, and real-time notifications needed. Common with MQTT and similar brokered protocols..

[Audio] $PPTXTitle Environmental monitoring Sensors publish to topics (air, water, weather) continuously Many agencies subscribe for alerts, trends, and forecasting MQTT in practice – Brokered pub-sub; clients use topics and QoS 0/1/2 – Optimized for low bandwidth and intermittent device connections Smart city traffic alerts Signals publish congestion, incidents, and parking availability Drivers, signage, and apps subscribe for real-time rerouting.

[Audio] Core IoT Communication Models $PPTXTitle Two-part data flow Producers push events into a queue or stream. Consumers pull when ready, controlling processing rate. Real-time + batch balance Low-latency handling for urgent signals and alerts. Batch pulls enable smoothing during traffic spikes. Aggregation and analytics fit Many producers feed one pipeline for cleaning and rollups. Supports dashboards, ETL, and edge-to-cloud telemetry..

[Audio] $PPTXTitle Periodic sensor uploads Devices push readings every 1–60 min for trend tracking Gateways buffer and resend during outages to prevent gaps Cloud IoT dashboards Ingest push events; users pull history with filters on demand Dashboards refresh every 1–10 s for near-real-time views Smart grid hybrid flows Meters push interval data; operators pull diagnostics when needed Grid alerts pushed instantly; audits pulled in batch overnight Core IoT Communication Models.

[Audio] $PPTXTitle Dedicated 1-to-1 link Single peer per session; messages are not broadcast Often short-range: BLE, NFC, wired, or local radio Privacy and reliability Reduces eavesdropping surface; supports encrypted sessions Predictable latency and throughput due to dedicated channel Secure pairing workflow Authenticate devices, exchange keys, then establish trusted link Common for wearables, medical sensors, and phone accessories Core IoT Communication Models.

[Audio] Core IoT Communication Models $PPTXTitle Personal area networks (PAN) Short range, typically ~1–10 m for body-area links Best when privacy, reliability, and stable pairing matter Medical device communication – Dedicated channel reduces eavesdropping and pairing mistakes – Supports continuous vital signs streaming with low latency Wearable + phone pairing – Bluetooth LE links watch, earbuds, fitness band to app – Direct sync for notifications, control, and sensor uploads.

[Audio] $PPTXTitle Request-Response Lowest latency for queries; scales poorly at high fan-out Security via auth per request; best for control, lookups Publish-Subscribe High scalability via topics/brokers; decouples senders/receivers Security centers on broker ACLs; best for event alerts, telemetry Push-Pull Good throughput; consumers pace load by pulling when ready Security at queue/worker level; best for pipelines, analytics Exclusive Pair Tight link, predictable latency; limited scalability by design Strong privacy via dedicated channel; best for pairing, medical links Model Comparison and Selection.

[Audio] $PPTXTitle Start from requirements Prioritize latency, reliability, security, and offline tolerance. Map interactions: command/control vs telemetry vs event alerts. Fit device + network limits Power/CPU/memory budget drives protocol and message frequency. Bandwidth/NAT/mobility decide brokered Pub-Sub vs direct links. Choose model by topology Request-Response for queries; Pub-Sub for fan-out updates. Push-Pull for pipelines; Exclusive Pair for trusted pairing. Align to business goals Scale targets: 10s vs 1,000s vs 1M devices change architecture. Optimize for time-to-market, operations cost, and compliance needs. Model Comparison and Selection.
