- Requires minimal resources since it is lightweight and efficient
- Supports bi-directional messaging between device and cloud
- Can scale to millions of connected devices
- Supports reliable message delivery through 3 QoS levels
- Works well over unreliable networks
- Security enabled, so it works with TLS and common authentication protocols
