First of all, you need to ask yourself how familiar you are with MatLab. Then from a dev point of view, could you use an API to reference cloud data then apply analytics. Great intro to IoT. I can see that company going far in 5-10 and may invest based on trajectory. https://thingspeak.com

I haven't got around to MQTT yet, but as an easy interim solution I recommend ThingSpeak https://thingspeak.com/ as you can set up an account for free and getting an ESP to send data to it is trivial. Plus you can access it via the web, or embed their graphs and dials into a webpage. The graphics are a bit meh though.
