## Overview [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/emqtt/emqttd.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/emqtt/emqttd)

emqttd is a massively scalable and clusterable MQTT V3.1/V3.1.1 broker written in Erlang/OTP. emqttd support both MQTT V3.1/V3.1.1 protocol specification with extended features.

emqttd requires Erlang R17+ to build.

Notice that Erlang/OTP R18.0 introduced a [binary memory leak](http://erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-questions/2015-September/086098.html), DON'T compile the broker with R18.

## Goals

emqttd is aimed to provide a solid, enterprise grade, extensible open-source MQTT broker for IoT, M2M and Mobile applications that need to support ten millions of concurrent MQTT clients.

* Easy to install
* Massively scalable

## QuickStart

Download binary packeges for linux, mac and freebsd from [http://emqtt.io/downloads](http://emqtt.io/downloads).

For example:

```sh
unzip emqttd-ubuntu64-0.10.0-beta-20150820.zip && cd emqttd

# start console
./bin/emqttd console

# start as daemon
./bin/emqttd start

# check status
./bin/emqttd_ctl status

# stop
./bin/emqttd stop
``` 

Build from source:

```
git clone https://github.com/emqtt/emqttd.git

cd emqttd && make && make dist
```


## GetStarted

Read [emqtt wiki](https://github.com/emqtt/emqttd/wiki) for detailed installation and configuration guide.


## Benchmark

Benchmark 0.6.1-alpha on a ubuntu/14.04 server with 8 cores, 32G memory from QingCloud:

200K+ Connections, 200K+ Topics, 20K+ In/Out Messages/sec, 20Mbps+ In/Out with 8G Memory, 50%CPU/core
