> Currently messaging component only supports MQTT transport. This has several drawbacks:
> I wanted to implement an automated integration test which could start an ActiveMQ instance (using ActiveMQ embedded server) and a Stratos server instance and run sample applications against Mock IaaS. However as I found ActiveMQ embedded server does not support MQTT transport out of the box however it works with AMQP.
> During past months most of us noticed an instability behaviour in MQTT. Once the Stratos server is run for several hours the connection to the message broker drops.
> Another important reason is that MQTT requires each client to specify a globally unique ID. We managed to solve this by generating a random number. A UUID is much larger than the limit specified by MQTT. This is not a proper way of handling a Client ID in a distributed environment.
> Due to above reasons it would be great if we can introduce factory classes for TopicPublisher and TopicSubscriber and add support for AMQP.
