Protocol for industrial MQTT

[robmarkcole]

We are considering using MQTT rather than our current solution of sockets as the method to connect devices in our lab. I would like to know if there is a standard messaging protocol? A colleague suggested GEMS - are there others?

Their is no standard protocol except the simple QOS, topics etc. This is why its so fast and useful.

I suggest to build your own protocol. Create packet definition like

[CMD][DATA][CRC] This would be s imple packet you could enhance and add encryption if required.
