Eclipse Mosquitto™ is an open source (EPL/EDL licensed) message broker that implements the MQTT protocol. MQTT provides a lightweight method of carrying out messaging using a publish/subscribe model. This makes it suitable for “Internet of Things” messaging such as with low power sensors or mobile devices such as phones, embedded computers or microcontrollers like the Arduino. And I will show you how to install Mosquitto to RaspberryPi

In our previous post we installed MySQL server and PhpMyAdmin. Now we gonna add new user and tables to our database using PhpMyAdmin.

With a static IP, you’ll be able to use the same IP address every time you connect to your Pi via SSH.
