Abstract
This article presents a comparison between IoT architectures focused on monitoring the purified water production station of a pharmaceutical industry. The main difference between the two architectures presented is in the configured topology and in the communication protocols used to collect data from IoT devices installed on the equipment. The first architecture is based on the use of the MQTT (Message Queuing Telemetry Transport) protocol, where each device sends the collected data individually and the consumer is responsible for the organization. The second architecture is based on a wireless sensor network using the ESP-Now protocol, in which a centralizing device is added to manage and synchronize data. The results demonstrated the greater stability and reliability of the second architecture, but there are advantages and disadvantages in the two configurations detailed in the article.
