Example

• Take a couple ESP8266 boards
• Those ESP8266 boards can be operated via MQTT protocol
• Each board has sensors like, temperature, humidity, relay, push button, etc.,
• Now relate with MyController resources
  • All the boards can be connected via MQTT to MyController - is called gateway
  • A board is a endpoint - is called node
  • temperature, humidity, etc., measurements are called field
  • group of fields or a single field goes under a source
