About this course
This course develops practical capability in MQTT. Its course-specific content covers Protocol model, Topic design, Security and reliability, Broker lab, followed by an applied project focused on configure and validate a secure mqtt telemetry flow. The lessons include concrete configuration, design, testing or operational decisions appropriate to the subject.
Who this is for
Administrators, developers and practitioners who work with MQTT or plan to take on responsibilities in this area.
Before you start
Basic computer literacy and a foundational understanding of iot, embedded & edge computing. Prior experience with the named product helps with the practical exercises.
Configure and validate a secure MQTT telemetry flow
Deliver configure and validate a secure mqtt telemetry flow. Use the module outcomes to state requirements, demonstrate a working result, test an expected failure or boundary case, and document assumptions and follow-up work.
Course content
Course-specific syllabus and practical exercises. Lab release, access arrangements and final delivery scope are confirmed before enrolment.
01Protocol model
+
- Broker, clients, topics and sessions
- Publish-subscribe delivery and QoS
Practical exerciseApply protocol model to the configure and validate a secure mqtt telemetry flow and capture the validation evidence.
02Topic design
+
- Hierarchy, wildcard subscriptions and retained data
- Message schemas and versioning
Practical exerciseApply topic design to the configure and validate a secure mqtt telemetry flow and capture the validation evidence.
03Security and reliability
+
- TLS, authentication and topic authorization
- Reconnect, persistence and offline clients
Practical exerciseApply security and reliability to the configure and validate a secure mqtt telemetry flow and capture the validation evidence.
04Broker lab
+
- Publish sensor data to a test broker
- Verify subscriptions, rejected access and reconnect behavior
Practical exerciseApply broker lab to the configure and validate a secure mqtt telemetry flow and capture the validation evidence.
05Applied project: Configure and validate a secure MQTT telemetry flow
+
- Define inputs, assumptions and acceptance criteria for: Configure and validate a secure MQTT telemetry flow.
- Implement the project using protocol model, topic design, security and reliability, broker lab.
Practical exerciseConfigure and validate a secure MQTT telemetry flow.
06MQTT — validation and review
+
- Demonstrate the completed project against its acceptance criteria.
- Exercise an invalid-input or failure scenario and document the observed result.
Practical exercisepresent the project evidence, limitations and a repeatable handover.
