FairCom MQ serves as a robust MQTT broker specifically engineered for mission-critical environments, distinguishing itself by integrating the benefits of an MQTT broker with the inherent reliability of a dedicated embedded database. This core persistence layer is crucial for guaranteeing safe and consistent data transfer between subscribers and publishers, even in scenarios where devices temporarily go offline. Its no-code configuration capabilities, primarily through simple JSON, significantly simplify cross-communication for both application development and IoT device integration. The solution is designed with a small footprint, enabling deployment anywhere, including environments with limited or unreliable bandwidth, while still offering extensive possibilities for data gathering, pushing, and pulling. It simplifies application development by allowing the addition of new processing capabilities without disrupting existing integrations. FairCom MQ's store-and-forward capabilities ensure that no message is ever missed, providing guaranteed delivery and enabling new subscribers to receive persisted message backlogs, thus keeping all connected machines synchronized. Furthermore, it facilitates real-time monitoring and notifications between applications through parallel processing, eliminating bottlenecks and improving decision-making. The platform also supports protocol transformation, allowing seamless data exchange between Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) systems for telemetry, alerts, status, commands, and queries without operational disruption.

Features & Benefits

• Persistent & Reliable Messaging
  • Guarantees message delivery even when devices go offline, leveraging an embedded database for store-and-forward capabilities. Connects legacy devices with new ones, ensuring all subscribers can receive message backlogs.
• Simplified Application Development
  • Enables the addition of new processing capabilities without affecting existing integrations, making it easy to send data wherever needed.
• Real-Time Monitoring & Notifications
  • Provides real-time updates and notifications between applications, improving decision-making and eliminating bottlenecks through parallel processing.
• Flexible Deployment & Configuration
  • Offers low-code configurations using simple JSON, making it a plug-and-play broker. It is lightweight and designed to run with minimum requirements, allowing deployment anywhere, even with limited bandwidth.
• Protocol Transformation & Data Accessibility
  • Transforms data for seamless exchange between OT and IT systems (telemetry, alerts, status, commands, queries). Provides access to stored data via SQL or JSON APIs, facilitating analytics and cross-system data exchange.
• Cloud Compatibility
  • Automatically pushes data to and from the cloud for storage and analytics. Allows users to select which topics are pushed to the cloud, optimizing bandwidth costs and data egress fees.
• MQTT Dashboard (MQ Explorer)
  • Enables tracking of all connected MQTT clients and their operating status. Its built-in management tool allows direct addition of publishers and subscribers from the dashboard.
• Scalability
  • Supports scale-out computing tasks by distributing messages among thousands of subscribers, capable of delivering to millions through a distributed hierarchy.
• Standardization
  • Facilitates easy data sharing with automatic transformations to MQTT, SQL, HTTPS, and JSON APIs, allowing for data enrichment during transformation.
