With Data logging to a MQTT broker, you can log your machine data directly to a 3rd party MQTT broker instead of the CloudVPN Portal. As such, it’s an alternative to the feature, where historical machine data is logged to the CloudVPN Portal. The MQTT broker can either be self-hosted or it can be run at an online service like Azure or Amazon Web Services (AWS). From there, you can process, analyse, visualise, and use the data in any way that your project requires.
If there is no internet connection available for the CloudVPN router, your data is not lost. The CloudVPN router will then continue logging data and can store it locally for months at a time, depending on how much data you log. Once the internet connection has been restored, the logged data will be sent to your MQTT broker.
Several communication protocols are supported by CloudVPN, this is the protocol that the CloudVPN router will use to locally communicate with your machine.
