This is a quick post to share a sample code using Eclipse Paho for MQTT. Recommended: First steps with MQTT using Mosquitto Some may prefer to use REST  or Websockets, but MQTT is the standard protocol to connect things to the Internet. Even a small NodeMCU can read and publish on MQTT topics. You can configure a RaspberryPi instance to be a mqtt server or even use a cloud MQTT server, such as Paho, Mosquitto and other servers on the cloud. There are also paid services such as Amazon AWS.   Here' s a very simple code to say hello from a Java application.

Last post I have announced my PET project called Kie Server Management Client , which is a JavaFX desktop application to remotely manage a Kie Server . This is a post about the 1.0-ALPHA2 release. We still have no installer and who wants to try it must know Maven and use Java 8. I do plan a better release in 1.0.Final, but this is a project I work on my spare time, so I can't promise too much. New features User Tasks Management Now it is possible to list the user tasks of a given process instance and all the user tasks of a Container: Listing user tasks for a given process instance ID Jobs Management Now it is possible to schedule cancel and requeue Jobs: Jobs requests management Video The following video shows the new features in action:  What's next?

It is a tool to manage containers from a given Kie Server, manage its process and send Drools commands to it.

Currently it is a tool for more technical people, so I did not bother to create distribution packages or provide further non technical instructions. To run it you need: Maven 3+ Java 8u60+ Instructions: Download the source on this link:  https://github.com/jesuino/kie-server-clients Download the zip directly and unzip in so...
