IBM Watson IoT
IBM Watson IoT is an IoT suite in the IBM cloud, which offers several services for connecting IoT devices to IBM Bluemix services, processing incoming messages or sending messages to the devices. From a device perspective, the functionalities of IBM Watson IoT enable simple and safe connection of IoT devices with IBM services by facilitating bidirectional communication between the devices and IBM Watson IoT.
IBM Watson IoT and TwinCAT IoT
Since IBM Watson IoT can be reached via the MQTT transport protocol, it is possible to use TwinCAT IoT for sending messages to IBM Watson IoT or receiving messages from it.
Various samples illustrate how to connect to IBM Watson IoT.
