CoAP support in Amazon FreeRTOS

[christian-herber]

Currently, Amazon FreeRTOS is based on MQTT and HTTP for transport.
Another protocol from the IoT world is CoAP. Providing similar functionality as HTTP, it is able to run on more constrained devices.

Describe the solution you would like.
Include a CoAP library in Amazon FreeRTOS, allow Coap as alternative for MQTT and HTTP for applications.

Several implementations of coap exists, e.g. https://github.com/obgm/libcoap.

Looking forward for discussion.

Hi all,
As this issue is still open, i would like to point you to the following solution: https://ioterop.com/NEBRASKA.
With this solution, if your device runs CoAP, you can easily publish on AWS IoT Core like any MQTT device.
You have to subscribe on AWS marketplace: NEBRASKA AWS
This solution is fully compliant with any CoAP implementation.
Hope this helps you.
