Eclipse Mosquitto Description

Eclipse Mosquitto is a message broker that is open source and licensed under EPL/EDL, designed to support various versions of the MQTT protocol, including 5.0, 3.1.1, and 3.1. This broker is notably lightweight, making it ideal for deployment on a wide range of devices, from low-power single-board computers to robust server systems.

The MQTT protocol itself offers an efficient way to handle messaging through a publish/subscribe architecture, which is particularly well-suited for applications in the Internet of Things, enabling communication with low-power sensors or mobile devices like smartphones, embedded systems, and microcontrollers.

In addition to the broker, the Mosquitto project also includes a C library that facilitates the creation of MQTT clients, alongside the widely used command line clients, mosquitto_pub and mosquitto_sub, which enhance user interaction with the MQTT protocol. Overall, Mosquitto serves as a versatile tool for developers aiming to implement messaging solutions in a variety of applications.
