Deploy EMQX in one click installation.
High-performance open-source MQTT broker for IoT and real-time messaging with a built-in web management dashboard.
What you can build with EMQX
EMQX is a highly scalable, open-source MQTT message broker designed for IoT, industrial automation, and real-time data streaming. It handles millions of concurrent MQTT connections with sub-millisecond latency and supports MQTT 3.1, 3.1.1, and 5.0 along with MQTT over WebSockets. A built-in rule engine lets you process, route, and transform device messages without writing backend code, connecting directly to databases, cloud services, and HTTP endpoints.
The included web dashboard provides a comprehensive management interface for monitoring cluster health, connection statistics, subscription trees, and rule engine flows in real time. Self-hosting EMQX on your VPS gives you complete control over your IoT message infrastructure — no per-message cloud fees, no vendor lock-in, and full visibility into your device communication layer.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
