Hi All,

In https://www.ptc.com/en/support/article/CS246701, we can find this advice:

"if you are going to have a large number of MQTT devices, you may want to use the MQTTConnection / MQTTSubscriber entities instead."

 

My question is: May i use only 1 instance of MQTTConnection and many instances of MQTTSubscribers or as many MQTTConnection as MQTTSubscribers ?

(I will have several thousand things that should communicate through mqtt)

Hi @cbaurand.

 

It's my understanding that you can have multiple MQTTConnection instances.  But to fully answer your question, we would need to understand more regarding your environment.  There are many variables that would impact performance.  

 

This is a question best answered by one of our consultants.  If you are interested in engaging a consultant for your project, you will need to reach out to the Sales team.

 

Regards.
