Once the IoT device is publishing telemetry, the server code can be written to subscribe to this data and store it. Rather than save it to a database, the server code will save it to a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file. CSV files store data as rows of values with each value separated by a comma, and each record on a new line. They are a convenient, human-readable and well supported way to save data as a file.
Once the IoT device is publishing telemetry, the server code can be written to subscribe to this data and store it. Rather than save it to a database, the server code will save it to a Comma Separated Values (CSV) file. CSV files store data as rows of values as text with each value separated by a comma, and each record on a new line.
