Currently the MQTT Connector only supports username/password authentication. This is great for local brokers/servers, but very unpractical when connecting to cloud brokers like AWS IoT Core. Adding support for Client SSL authentication will make i...

Support Failover at the data source level

For PI Connector (1.x) that support failover like OPC UA, failover will only occur when all data sources get into a bad state. Failover should not have to be configure at the PI Connector node level, but for each data source. Use case 1: If 3 con...

Connectors should support a Send Rate parameter

Connectors need adapt to many different types of networks, in both configuration and quality (latency, etc.) of the data transfer. One of the features that interfaces had, but connectors still lack, is the ability to batch the values sent to PI an...
