Nove Vs Dash and MQTT

[lior]

Hi all,
I am looking to use the Hologram Nova or Dash to connect a weather sensor to AWS iot platform.

• I would like to send communication from the device to AWS via the lightweight MQTT protocol.
• There is not need to send communication from AWS to the device(s)

What is your recommendation?
Thanks,
Lior

Hi @lior

Path of lest resistance is to use HTTP rather than MQTT

Device communication protocols - AWS IoT Core

You can set this up as a route in your dashboard

If you want to use MQTT you can do so however you will need to add an MQTT client and write your own integration

hi @lior

I use a Huawei E3372 modem so can’t really make a comment on dash vs Nova.

I am planning to purchase both in the next couple of months.
