Limitations of cloud variable/property synchronization

Arduino IoT Cloud offers a platform for IoT device management and communication, including TTC between devices. While it provides valuable features for connecting and managing IoT devices, there are some drawbacks to consider:

  • Latency: TTC can introduce latency, which is the delay between when a change is made to a variable on one device and when it is reflected on the other device. This can be a problem for applications that require very low latency, such as controlling a robot in real time.
  • Offline device challenges: Devices that are temporarily offline may miss important messages or updates from other devices. Ensuring that devices can catch up on missed communications when they reconnect to the network can be complex to implement.
  • Dependency on internet connectivity: Arduino IoT Cloud relies on an internet connection for communication between devices. If the internet connection goes down, the devices may lose...
