MQTT is a lightweight messaging protocol, well known for its use in IoT and mobile applications. LavinMQ supports MQTT in multi-node setups, replicating retained messages from leader to follower nodes. Some of MQTT’s key features include:
- Lightweight: LavinMQ is built to be resource-efficient, and with MQTT, it can be optimized even further, making it perfect for constrained environments.
- Many connections: MQTT on LavinMQ can support a large number of devices in IoT scenarios.
- Reliable message delivery: LavinMQ’s MQTT implementation allows the usage of varying Quality of Service (QoS) levels and retained messages. This ensures dependable communication, even in unstable network conditions.
- Secure: MQTT uses TLS encryption to keep messages secure and supports authentication protocols to verify clients' identities.
Other top features in this release includes automatic consumer offset tracking for stream queues, message deduplication, and stream filtering. Visit the LavinMQ release blog for more details.
