DEPRECATION NOTICE

Starting from v5.9.0, EMQX has unified all features from the previous Open Source and Enterprise editions into a single, powerful offering with the Business Source License (BSL) 1.1.

If you want to understand why we made the change, please read this blog post, and if you want to know more about the new license, please read the EMQX Licensing FAQ.

Consequently, we stopped publishing the emqx Docker Official Image. EMQX v5.9.0+ will only be available in the emqx/emqx and emqx/emqx-enterprise Docker Hub repositories.

What is EMQX

EMQX is the world's most scalable open-source MQTT broker with a high performance that connects 100M+ IoT devices in 1 cluster, while maintaining 1M message per second throughput and sub-millisecond latency.

EMQX supports multiple open standard protocols like MQTT, HTTP, QUIC, and WebSocket. It's 100% compliant with MQTT 5.0 and 3.x standard, and secures bi-directional communication with MQTT over TLS/SSL and various authentication mechanisms.

With the built-in powerful SQL-based rules engine, EMQX can extract, filter, enrich and transform IoT data in real-time. In addition, it ensures high availability and horizontal scalability with a masterless distributed architecture, and provides ops-friendly user experience and great observability.

EMQX boasts more than 20K+ enterprise users across 50+ countries and regions, connecting 100M+ IoT devices worldwide, and is trusted by over 400 customers in mission-critical scenarios of IoT, IIoT, connected vehicles, and more, including over 70 Fortune 500 companies like HPE, VMware, Verifone, SAIC Volkswagen, and Ericsson.

How to use this image

Run EMQX

Execute some command under this docker image

For example

The EMQX broker runs as Linux user emqx in the docker container.

Configuration

All EMQX Configuration in etc/emqx.conf can be configured via environment variables.

Example:

EMQX_DASHBOARD__DEFAULT_PASSWORD dashboard.default_password EMQX_NODE__COOKIE node.cookie EMQX_LISTENERSSSLdefault__ENABLE listeners.ssl.default.enable

Note: The lowercase use of 'default' is not a typo. It is used to demonstrate that lowercase environment variables are equivalent.

• Prefix EMQX_ is removed • All upper case letters are replaced with lower case letters • __ is replaced with .

For example, set MQTT TCP port to 1883

Please read more about EMQX configuration in the official documentation

EMQX node name configuration

Environment variable EMQX_NODE__NAME allows you to specify an EMQX node name, which defaults to @.

If not specified, EMQX determines its node name based on the running environment or other environment variables used for node discovery.

Cluster

EMQX supports a variety of clustering methods, see our documentation for details.

Let's create a static node list cluster from Docker Compose.

• Create compose.yaml: • Start the Docker Compose services • View cluster

Persistence

If you want to persist the EMQX docker container, you need to keep the following directories:

• /opt/emqx/data • /opt/emqx/log

Since data in these folders are partially stored under the /opt/emqx/data/mnesia/${node_name}, the user also needs to reuse the same node name to see the previous state. To make this work, one needs to set the host part of EMQX_NODE__NAME to something static that does not change when you restart or recreate the container. It could be container name, hostname or loopback IP address 127.0.0.1 if you only have one node.

In if you use Docker Compose, the configuration would look something like this:

Kernel Tuning

Under Linux host machine, the easiest way is Tuning guide.

If you want tune Linux kernel by docker, you must ensure your docker is latest version (>=1.12).

REMEMBER: DO NOT RUN EMQX DOCKER PRIVILEGED OR MOUNT SYSTEM PROC IN CONTAINER TO TUNE LINUX KERNEL, IT IS UNSAFE.
