We use RabbitMQ and file transfer. It's working a little slow, but for updating far away customers it is duable. I would recommend you following guidelines: Create a message structure for each block you send with command, offset and CRC32, data length, maximum 60kByte per block of data, give blocks a counter, do a sha256 at the end to make sure data is correct, make tar optional so the data can be much smaller and transmission is faster.. make a directory thing, to see which files need to update... use a broadcast event to see who's available and update 1 customer at a time with client.company.update orso, where a customer listens to .company. have fun! p.s. we also created a linux-service for this, which starts automatic at the customer.
