For details see Getting started > Technical concepts > Real-time processing.
REST
In Cumulocity IoT, REST (Representational State Transfer) is used for all external communication with IoT devices, other web applications or back-office IT systems.
REST API
The Cumulocity IoT REST API is an interface that allows for communication between the Cumulocity IoT platform and other systems via HTTP and REST. It allows the user to perform operations and process data by issuing a simple request using any HTTP client such as a web browser.
