Betreff: Hono 0.5 released

Dear Hono community,

after 10 milestones and 1370 commits we are very happy (and also a little proud) to finally announce the availability of Eclipse Hono 0.5 [1].

This is the initial release of Eclipse Hono with a strict focus on providing functionality for devices to publish Telemetry data and Events for consumption by applications connected to Hono.

Devices can publish data to Hono using MQTT and/or HTTP. Eclipse Kura gateways can publish data to Hono using Kura's standard MqttDataTransport. The arbitrary transport protocols for interacting with devices are implemented by Protocol Adapters. Hono comes with an MQTT, a HTTP and a Kura Protocol Adapter out of the box. Users can extend the range of supported transport protocols by implementing a custom Protocol Adapter and integrating it with the Hono back end services.

When a device connects to a protocol adapter, Hono verifies the device's identity by means of username/password credentials thus establishing the source of the data being published. Consuming applications can then be sure that the data they receive really originates from the indicated device.

The APIs between the protocol adapters and Hono as well as the consuming solutions and Hono are defined in AMQP 1.0.

Hono can be downloaded from the project website [1], individual artifacts are also available from the Eclipse Repository [2] and (later during the day) from Maven Central [3].

However, the easiest and also the preferred way of using Hono is by means of Docker images available from Docker Hub [4].

If you want to give Hono a try, follow the Getting Started guide on the project web site [5].

Finally, an outlook on future plans for Hono can be found in the Road Map [6].
