Connect to WebSocket devices at the edge and easily push data from those devices using IOTech’s WebSocket device connector

 

What is WebSocket

  • WebSocket is a standards-based communication protocol that provides bi-directional communication over a single TCP connection
  • WebSocket-based communication is utilized for services that require continuous data exchanges, e.g., online gaming and other real-time systems. Modern web browsers usually support WebSocket communication as standard
  • The WebSocket protocol is described in the RFC 6455 specification which describes both the ws:// and the wss:// (Web Socket Secure) protocols as two URI schemas
  • Web Socket Secure adds encryption and operates over TLS

IOTech's WebSocket device connector provides an easy way for third-party applications to push data via the WebSocket protocol using asynchronous readings

  

The WebSocket device connector implements the following key features: 

  • Support for both ws and wss schemes
  • Connection to multiple WebSocket endpoints
  • Retries after lost connection
  • Data parsing from incoming payloads
  • One-way communication, i.e., pushing data
  • Asynchronous readings
  • Support for Boolean, Int8, Uint8, Int16, Uint16, Int32, Uint32, Int64, Uint64, Float32, Float64 and String data types
