I wrote a very simple queue for embedded devices to talk to (in Go, so you just copy the single binary), which is similar to VerneMQ (I guess) but way less complex:

It's basically an HTTP API for polling pub/sub, along with a streaming endpoint for push.

>>> which is similar to VerneMQ (I guess) but way less complex

I quick read of both VerneMQ and your queue service indicates that your guess is wrong:

- The whole MQTT spec (compact on-the-air messages, hierarchical topics, wildcard subscriptions, QoS level, message persistence)

- Service level agreement

- Live code upgrade

- Monitoring and tracing built-in

- Extensible with plug-ins

- Fault tolerance
