Rumqtt - High throughput MQTT broker for the 21st century

Mqtt is a crucial building block for

• Hardware startups creating smart, connected devices
• Applications where network is a premium resource
  • Facebook messenger uses MQTT
• Applications where low latencies and scale are important
  • Stock brokers

Rumqtt is aiming to supercharge these building blocks (broker, client and tools) to get the most out of them. It's written in rust from scratch. Combined with a design principles where performance and ease of use are not second thoughts, It's already performing upto 4X better than all the famous brokers with a lot of perf improvements in pipeline.

This enables startups to get away with very few engineering resources and money even while scaling.

Mqtt 5 is the latest standardization to MQTT spec. It has some great features like topic aliases to use even less network bandwidth and shared subscriptions for load balancing.

For the next 2 days we gradually implement core mqtt 5 spec

Conclusion

Around 70% of the spec is implemented along with tests. Serialization and deserialization of all the packets are validated with this existing packet parsing library
