< Paho
Disclaimer: This project/idea is actually at the draft state.
Context
According to several discussions of the Paho mailing list (1)(2), it seems there a need for a Reference Implementation of a MQTT Broker, and also a need for a lightweight, embeddable and open sourced MQTT Broker running on the JVM.
The main goals are:
- Write a specification of a MQTT Broker
- Deliver a Reference Implementation
Key features of the MQTT Broker
Main features
The Minimum Viable Product (MVP) consists in:
- Lightweight

- Monitoring
TODO
- Write the MQTT protocol model classes (or extract the one from the MQTT Paho client)
- Write acceptance tests
- Write an implementation
