I am pretty new in IoT world.

My first question is, how can I management my devices (to send a specific topic for him or another way to send)

I already connected my device, I sent pub/sub data. Now I need to send a specific data to one device.

My ideia is generate a device and persist in one database. So I get this ID and create a topic for it, like:

`topic/:uuid/command`

and I can subscribe this topic in the device to run some commands (like updates/upgrades) sent by my backend.

that is the right path? Or am I too far?

ps: I will really enjoy some resources for that.

Thanks!

Hi @iagoEffting ,  
great to see your interest in HiveMQ and MQTT. Welcome to the community!  
We suggest you start from [Getting Started with HiveMQ :: HiveMQ Documentation](https://www.hivemq.com/docs/hivemq/4.5/user-guide/getting-started.html#get-started) , then to read the [MQTT Essentials](https://www.hivemq.com/mqtt-essentials/) cover to cover and also the [MQTT 5 Essentials](https://www.hivemq.com/mqtt-5/).

I hope this helps,
