Hi,

It depends on what your application is, but to should have a look to bsd sockets or mqtt. Personnaly I use mqtt.

+1 for MQTT. Run mosquitto on the Pi. Learn its use by running mosquitto_pub and mosquitto_sub between the Pi and a networked PC or between two PC's. Then install and use the umqtt libraries on your board. mosquitto is super-easy to use. I wrote some notes on MQTT here which may be of some use viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2239.
