Great vid Steve. One question. I have the bridge setup in mosquitto (primary) bridging with my test EMQX broker with:

topic # out 0
topic # in 0

I can see all new messages being delivered from mosquitto to EMQX, however when I publish a test message to my EMQX broker it doesn't make it back to mosquitto. Looking at the EMQX UI I see that the mosquitto connection is not subscribed to anything on the EMQX broker. Any idea what could be wrong?

Yes and No. the bridge is implemented on the broker and if that broker fails then you have no access to the other broker.The bridge could bridge from your local network to two or more internet brokers which would be a backup if one of the Internet brokers failed.For local backup the client would need to be configured to connect to two brokers which is unusual.

Can I use this methode as a Buck up, when one of the brokers is off ?

I am wondering if there's a possibility to do the connection of three brokers on the same host. I am referring to the back-end data sharing model? Is it possible

hi sir
i just want to understand something from you, now i need to use mqtt protocol to send and receive messages from hardware devices and use them in django framework
, so mosquitto is local broker means just use in development and not for production, or it's for both of them means i could install it with django when i deploy my app

have you ever work on android broker such as moquette or something like that ?

when we have one esp8266 and we want to connet to it with 20 mobile phone what happen?
each esp8266 or esp 12e can just have 8 TCP/ UDP connection

what's your idea if we have 20 mobile phones and simultaneous they want to connect to one esp publisher?

if we run an android broker on one of mobile phones and other connect to it we can connect to esp by one TCP/UDP from broker to esp, is it true?

have you ever work on android broker such as moquette or something like that ?
and we don't have any cloud on

Dear friend,
Thanks for your great sharing
Just have a question that:

Is there possible to make multiple MQTT connection bridge (as multiple client) to 1x broker end-point with different remote_cliendid parameter??

Example:

connection client-01
address end-point-01:8883
topic # both 0
remote_clientid client-id-01

connection client-02
address end-point-01:8883
topic # both 0
remote_clientid cliend-id-02

Is it possible with my target?

[jesuschal]

As I understand it the name of the topic cannot be remapped, only the prefix. Is that right?

[teetanrobotics]

What's going to happen in case of :

topic house/sensor1 out 0 b1/ b2/
topic house/sensor1 in 0 b3/ b4/
