EMQX Enterprise 6.0 Launch: A Transformative Messaging Solution for Enterprises

On September 30, 2025, EMQ, a prominent name in MQTT messaging and edge-to-cloud IoT connectivity, unveiled EMQX Enterprise 6.0. This major update is a significant leap forward, heralding a new chapter for enterprise IoT data infrastructure. It promises to unify messaging systems, enhance security, and create scalable data pipelines crucial for AI and IoT applications.

Key Innovations of EMQX 6.0

Unified MQTT and Message Queuing

One of the groundbreaking features of EMQX 6.0 is the integration of message queuing with traditional MQTT capabilities. This innovation allows real-time streaming and asynchronous workloads to be managed within a single system, reducing the complexity of relying on external queueing solutions like RabbitMQ or Kafka. The introduction of Last Value Queues further simplifies the management of swiftly changing device states by retaining the most recent update per key.

Secure, Isolated Multi-Tenancy

Another major upgrade is the enterprise-grade multi-tenancy feature. EMQX allows secure management of isolated tenants within the same cluster. Administrators can assign dedicated resources and apply role-based access controls, ensuring a streamlined management process that enhances security while facilitating the development of extensive cloud-native services.

Scalable Durable Storage

The platform also boasts a newly architected storage engine based on RocksDB, designed to enhance performance and resilience for millions of concurrent connections. The new design increases efficiency dramatically, providing a significantly reduced disk footprint per session and allowing for sharded storage across the cluster to support scalability.

Expanded Data Pipelines for Cloud and AI Integration

Alongside its core features, EMQX 6.0 enhances its role as a bridge between IoT data and enterprise analytics. Some notable highlights include:

• - Snowflake: Real-time data ingestion with the Snowpipe Streaming API.
• - Google BigQuery: Native support for high-throughput APIs.
• - Amazon S3 Tables: Cost-effective storage and querying using Parquet columnar formats.
• - Support for Amazon Redshift, Google AlloyDB, and CockroachDB.
• - Integration with OpenAI API, allowing for AI-driven workflows embedded within MQTT streams.

Benniu Ji, VP of Product at EMQ, stated, “With EMQX 6.0, we're delivering a unified platform that goes far beyond traditional MQTT. Native features like message queuing and multi-tenancy enable enterprises to consolidate infrastructure, reduce complexity, and accelerate innovation in both IoT and AI.”

Who Can Benefit from EMQX 6.0?

EMQX 6.0 serves multiple use cases:

• - Enterprises that need guaranteed message delivery and durable session persistence at scale are prime candidates.
• - Organizations looking to merge MQTT with other messaging systems can take advantage of its capabilities.
• - Data engineering teams focused on establishing real-time analytics pipelines will find the platform invaluable.
• - Businesses managing multi-tenant IoT and AI workloads across various divisions can benefit immensely from EMQX's enterprise features.
