NB-IOT with Google Cloud Platform

Alejandro Chavez

Hello

I have a question, after watching the video: youtu.be/7h4wxyFktkQ

It is mentioned that it is not recommended to connect to Google Cloud Platform from a device that is working with NB-IOT because Google Cloud Platform does not support UDP for connections but only TCP.

This is so? What would be the recommendation if I wanted to take the collected data to Google but I can only use NB-IOT?

    Hi

    This is correct. NB-IoT and TCP are not a great combination, as they might block one another. Most NB-IoT networks do not block it though but might drop TCP packets when there is too much strain on the network traffic. So, first of all, you can check with Google if they have started, or have plans to, supporting UDP. If not, you can check with your network provider if this is the case or not on NB-IoT, as this varies.

    Best regards,

    Simon
