Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach to a Self-Organizing Federation of MQTT BrokersNicolas Kolling Ribas, Marco Aurélio SpohnIn the Publish/Subscribe (PS) communication paradigm clients producing content (i.e., publishers) send it to a broker, which relays the content to consumers (i.e., subscribers). Communication can happen asynchronously, leaving all the hurdles to the server/broker. MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is the most used P/S protocol in designing IoT applications. The usual MQTT scenario comprises a single broker, making it a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 7 · 29 Jul 2022 · 6,156 accessesView PDFCite
