The MQTT and MQTT-SN (see mqtt.org) protocols are being widely used for IoT applications because of their simplicity and low overheads. The Paho embedded client libraries for MQTT and MQTT-SN have been designed to minimize size and avoid dependencies on system libraries. This makes them suitable for use in just about any environment with a C or C++ compiler, regardless of operating system or networking library.

This session will describe the libraries; how they are split into layers of varying size and helpfulness, and how they can be ported to the environment of your choice. It will be illustrated with examples of use on platforms such as mbed and Arduino.

As these libraries are so portable, I am hoping I won't need to write MQTT or MQTT-SN client libraries in C or C++ ever again!
