Introduction to MAPS Messaging
MAPS Messaging is a protocol-agnostic middleware designed to break down communication barriers in IoT ecosystems. It provides universal protocol translation, enabling devices, applications, and services using different communication standards to interoperate seamlessly.
Whether you’re integrating legacy devices, modern IoT sensors, or satellite connectivity, MAPS Messaging ensures all components can communicate within a single, unified system.
Key Features
- Universal Protocol Translation — connect devices across incompatible IoT standards.
- Broad Protocol Support — from mainstream IoT protocols to satellite and marine systems.
- Machine Learning Enhanced Routing (Premium Edition) — intelligent filtering, anomaly detection, and adaptive routing.
- Enterprise-Grade Security — TLS, authentication, and fine-grained access controls.
- Scalable Footprint — runs anywhere: Raspberry Pi Zero → enterprise-class servers.
Supported Protocols
MAPS Messaging natively supports the following protocols and access methods:
| Category | Protocols |
|---|---|
| IoT & Messaging | MQTT (3.1, 3.1.1, 5.0), STOMP, AMQP 1.1, CoAP, MQTT-SN, NATS |
| Networking / Transport | PROXY protocol, WebSockets |
| Satellite & Modems | Semtech (LoRa), Orbcomm / Inmarsat, IDP / OGx modem |
| Marine & GPS | NMEA-0183 |
Each protocol can be bridged to any other. For example, MQTT 5 → NATS, or CoAP → Orbcomm, without application changes.
