This Quickstart document covers how IoT Bridge can be used to consume MQTT Sparkplug data and create and update data in Snowflake. This will show how to configure IoT Bridge as well as show how to use Inductive Automation's Ignition platform along with Cirrus Link's MQTT modules to publish device data to an MQTT Server. This data will ultimately be consumed by IoT Bridge to create and update the Snowflake components. This tutorial will use the AWS IoT Core MQTT Server implementation. However, IBSNOW does work with any MQTT v3.1.1 compliant MQTT Server including Cirrus Link's MQTT Servers.

It is also important to note that Ignition in conjunction with Cirrus Link's MQTT Transmission module converts Ignition User Defined Types (UDTs) to Sparkplug Templates. This is done automatically by the MQTT Transmission module. So, much of this document will refer to UDTs rather than Sparkplug Templates since that is what they are in Ignition. More information on Inductive Automation's Ignition platform can be found here. Additional information on Cirrus Link's MQTT Transmission module can be found here.
