ibm bluemix - Why IBM WIoT platform use http in new firmware download? -
watson iot platform in ibm bluemix platform capable of manage devices , update firmware. process updating firmware platform sends mqtt message tell registered devices there new version, devices download new version via http.
my questions are:
- in process of device registration, both device , platform client of mqtt broker, doesn't wiot platform acts broker? broker? devices , platform in pub-sub relationship?
- why not let devices subscribe topic firmware? benefits of using http download firmware?
- the wiotp mqtt broker. device managed connects on mqtt wiotp , publishes message telling wiotp 'i managed , support these types of actions'. enables user initiate these types of actions against device using wiotp apis.
- the wiotp isn't hosting firmware downloaded. device download firmware on mqtt mean firmware have had uploaded wiotp somewhere.
