SurgeMQ is a high-performance MQTT broker and client library written in Go, aiming for full compliance with MQTT 3.1 and 3.1.1 specs. It provides MQTT server and client services in library form, but development is on hold and the project is unmaintained.

Use cases

  • embed an MQTT broker in a Go application
  • build an MQTT client in Go
  • handle pub/sub messaging for IoT devices
  • support QoS 0, 1, and 2 message delivery
  • implement will and retained messages

When to choose

  • you need an embeddable MQTT broker or client library in Go and accept unmaintained code
  • you want a lightweight MQTT implementation with full QoS support

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained, production-ready MQTT broker (consider VolantMQ or other alternatives)
  • you need MQTT 5.0 support
  • you require long-term security patches or community support
