+Session Management and Offline Messages
+
+Retained Messages
+
+Passed eclipse paho interoperability tests
+
+### Clusterable, Massively Scalable
+
+Massive Connections Clients Support

+Cluster brokers on servers or cloud hosts
+
+Bridge brokers locally or remotelly
+
+## Download, Install
+
+### Download
+
+Dowload binary packages from [http://emqtt.io/downloads](http://emqtt.io/downloads].
+
+Please build from source if no packages for your platform, or contact us.
+
+### Install
+
+Extract tgz package to your installed directory. for example:
+
+```
+tar xvf emqtt-ubuntu64-0.3.0-beta.tgz && cd emqtt  
+```
+
+### Startup
+
+Startup console for debug:
+
+```
+cd emqtt && ./bin/emqtt console
+```
+
+You could see all RECV/SENT MQTT Packages on console.
+
+Start as daemon:
+
+```
+cd emqtt && ./bin/emqtt start
+```
+
+eMQTT occupies 1883 port for MQTT, 8083 for HTTP API.
+
+### Status
+
+```
+cd emqtt && ./bin/emqtt_ctl status
+```
+
+### Stop
+
+```
+cd emqtt && ./bin/emqtt stop
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### etc/app.config
+
+```
+{emqtt, [
+    %Authetication. Internal, Anonymous Default.
+    {auth, {anonymous, []}},
+    {access, []},
+    {session, [
+        {expires, 1}, %hours
+        {max_queue, 1000},
+        {store_qos0, false}
+    ]},
+    {retain, [
+        {store_limit, 100000}
+    ]},
+    {listen, [
+        {mqtt, 1883, [
+            {max_conns, 1024},
+            {acceptor_pool, 4}
+        ]},
+        {http, 8083, [
+            {max_conns, 512},
+            {acceptor_pool, 1}
+        ]}
+    ]}
+]}
+```
+
+### etc/vm.args
+
+```
+-name emqtt@127.0.0.1
+
+-setcookie emqtt
+```
+
+## Cluster
+
+Suppose we cluster two nodes on 'host1', 'host2', Steps:
+
+### configure and start node on host1  
+
+configure 'etc/vm.args':
+
+```
+-name emqtt@host1
+```
+
+then start:
+
+```
+./bin/emqtt start
+```
+
+### configure and start node on host2
+
+configure 'etc/vm.args':
+
+```
+-name emqtt@host2
+```
+
+```
+./bin/emqtt start
+```
+
+### cluster two nodes
+
+Cluster from 'host2':
+
+```
+./bin/emqtt_ctl cluster emqtt@host1
+```
+
+or cluster from 'host1':
+
+```
+./bin/emqtt_ctl cluster emqtt@host2
+```
+
+then check clustered nodes on any host:
+
+```
+./bin/emqtt_ctl cluster
+```
+
+## HTTP API
+
+eMQTT support HTTP API to publish message from your APP to MQTT client.
+
+Example:
+
+```
+curl -v --basic -u user:passwd -d "qos=1&retain=0&topic=/a/b/c&message=hello from http..." -k http://localhost:8083/mqtt/publish
+```
+
+### URL
+
+```
+HTTP POST http://host:8083/mqtt/publish
+```
