Cluster forming with Mosquitto broker

Question

I am using Mosquitto broker to implement MQTT protocol. But I am unable to find how clustering can be done in case of mosquitto brokers. Also is there any limitation on numb

Answer 1

There are 2 (for this time of writing) major open source projects that support large scale MQTT deployments and clustering

VerneMQ and EMQ are both written in Erlang, which is very suitable for distributed messaging, having all the replication as built in toolset part of the (Erlang) language.

VerneMQ has commercial enterprise support, while EMQ is planning to in the near future, also both projects have large companies backing them as sponsors.

• VerneMQ (https://vernemq.com)
• EMQ (http://emqtt.io)

You may also look into HiveMQ which is the oldest kid in the block, yet cannot be used without a payed license.
