Found it interesting. Need to dig deeper. Working on a non-ignition dependent solution as well. Will keep posting.

Why FTP instead of MQTT for IOT?:

MQTT is an excellent publish/subscribe protocol for monitoring and controlling remote devices. But it’s not possible to download remote datalog files with MQTT or any other protocol. The only best solution available is secured SFTP. FTP can also act as a redundant solution for receiving remote data. My best bet for robust IOT solution is “MQTT + FTP”.

Edge device manufacturers must look into “MQTT + FTP” solution.
