Creating an MQTT bridge via PubSub+ Cloud
Hi everyone.
We're looking to utilise MQTT bridges on our event broker which is deployed on the PubSub+ Cloud. We've read up about the MQTT connector and wondered if this is possible to utilise for the cloud-deployed event broker via the Mission Control's Cluster Manager in some way, or if we need to take a different approach?
Thanks. 😊

Hello,
PubSub+ doesn't support MQTT server-to-server bridges and external MQTT brokers cannot be part of an event mesh cluster.
The MQTT connector integrates a PubSub+ queue/topic with an MQTT broker topic using 2 clients, an SMF client on the PubSub+ side and an MQTT Paho client on the MQTT broker side. The source client acts as a consumer and the target client acts as a publisher.

So it's like a "software bridge"… a client app connected to both sides? But the MQTT connector / micro-integration component can be run in the cloud, right? And at some point will/can be fully managed by Solace, as a "CaaS" (connector as a service? haha), correct?
