Investigating a generic load balancing architecture for MQTTBroker

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In recent years, with the explosive proliferation of IoT devices, data traffic has been increasing every year.
MQTT, which allows for IoT/M2M data exchange, is also facing the challenge of dealing with increasing traffic.
Since the MQTT concentrates the load on the brokers, the MQTT specification only specifies the use of a single broker, although it is possible to distribute the load by linking multiple brokers.
Some broker implementations implement federating capabilities between the same kind of brokers, but there is no way to federate data between different kinds of brokers.
In this study, we proposed a mechanism that allows arbitrary brokers to cooperate with each other without depending on their implementations.
This mechanism relays and filters messages between brokers, allowing multiple brokers to act as a single logical entity.
A prototype was built using the go language and evaluated for load balancing performance.
The combination of two brokers resulted in a 1.3-fold improvement in throughput compared to a single broker.
