[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ MQTT plugin and x509 client certificate authentication

[Mark Wolfe]

Thanks a lot for the pointers I will take a look at that repo and see what
i can pull together.

On the second point I am actually using AMQP quite a bit between internal
components at the moment, with a view to using the federation plugin in the
future.

That said the bridges I am talking about are from very small gateway
devices on very unreliable wireless networks connected up to 400 ms away
from the central brokers. From what I have observed in the past MQTT is
designed to work more effectively in these sorts of scenarios.

Cheers
