What is the easyest way to get all Nordic Thingy 91 data stored into a database? I could use Node-Red or whatever database, I need an easy procedure to follow.

Hello, 

there are several samples that you could look at to send data to a database. For example

• nRF9160: AWS IoT
• nRF9160: Azure IoT Hub
• nRF9160: Simple MQTT

Kind regards,

Hi,

I have understood that with nRF9160: Simple MQTT sample, data is stored in NRFCloud and I could later access to it. Is that correct?

Hello, 

No, the Simple MQTT allows customer to use their MQTT broker of choice, configured by the following configurations in the prj.conf

# Application
# CONFIG_MQTT_PUB_TOPIC="my/publish/topic"
# CONFIG_MQTT_SUB_TOPIC="my/subscribe/topic"
# CONFIG_MQTT_CLIENT_ID="my-client-id"
# CONFIG_MQTT_BROKER_HOSTNAME="mqtt.eclipseprojects.io"
# CONFIG_MQTT_BROKER_PORT=1883

Just uncomment the configurations and configure as you need.

The nRF Cloud solution does not use MQTT as the service layer, only as the communication protocol.

Kind regards,
Øyvind
