Why MQTT is the Ideal Protocol for Edge Computing

The lightweight, scalable, and reliable nature of MQTT makes it the perfect fit for connecting devices and applications at the edge.

Lightweight
With a minimal header overhead of just 2 bytes, MQTT is incredibly efficient. This conserves bandwidth and power, which is critical for constrained devices at the edge.
Scalable Pub/Sub
The publish/subscribe architecture decouples devices, allowing for seamless scaling from a few to millions of connections without impacting performance or reliability.
Reliable
With three levels of Quality of Service (QoS), MQTT ensures messages are delivered with the required guarantee, making it perfect for mission-critical industrial applications where data loss is unacceptable.

EMQX Architecture for Scalable Edge Intelligence

EMQX combines the industrial connectivity gateway (EMQX Neuron) and the high-performance edge MQTT broker (EMQX Edge) to create a seamless, scalable data pipeline from OT to IT.

EMQX Architecture for Scalable Edge Intelligence
Industrial Gateway (EMQX Neuron)
Connect to diverse OT devices with 100+ industrial protocols (e.g., Modbus, OPC-UA). EMQX Neuron translates and unifies OT data into standard MQTT format, making industrial data accessible.
Edge MQTT Broker (EMQX Edge)
Built on the core of the world's most scalable MQTT platform, EMQX Edge is a lightweight, powerful broker that aggregates and processes data locally before bridging it reliably to the cloud.
Seamless Edge-Cloud Sync
EMQX guarantees secure and reliable data synchronization between the edge computing layer and your cloud platform, even over unstable networks.
