Month: 2026-01 | hivemq/hivemq-edge — Reliability experimentation and rollback focus. The team explored tightening the protocol adapters shutdown window to improve graceful shutdown reliability, implemented a targeted change, and validated its impact through the codebase before reverting to the original, stable setting to preserve existing behavior.

October 2025 (2025-10) performance summary: Implemented API documentation and release hygiene across HiveMQ Edge and Helm charts. Key deliverables include: OpenAPI specification for HiveMQ Edge REST API documenting endpoints for authentication, data policies, behavior policies, and capabilities; version bumps reflecting releases 2025.17 and 2025.18 in protocol adapters and OpenAPI schema; and a consistent 2025.18 release marker across hivemq/helm-charts. These changes improve API usability, streamline client deployments, ensure accurate packaging metadata, and strengthen release governance.

July 2025 monthly summary for hivemq-edge. Focused on stable release delivery, controlled rollback, and preparation for the next development cycle, with clear versioning and API spec alignment to support customer value and rapid iteration.

May 2025 summary for hivemq/hivemq-edge focusing on delivering stability, maintainability, and compliance. Key features delivered centralized JAXB v2 integration at the Edge level with migration of JAXB-based persistence (topic filter) across modules; MTConnect protocol integration cleanup by replacing direct repository cloning with a versioned Gradle dependency and removing legacy settings; and license compliance improvements by adding Apache 2.0 copyright notices to test files. These changes reduce JAXB drift across modules, simplify builds, and ensure licensing compliance.

April 2025 (2025-04) - hivemq-edge delivered critical MTConnect integration upgrades, validation hardening, and stability improvements that drive reliability and faster go-to-market with safer hot-reload and configuration semantics. Key outcomes include upgrades to MTConnect adapters, refactors to relax absence checks for northbound mappings and tags, and enhanced validation logic through EntityValidatable integration, complemented by targeted fixes to headers, payload handling, and tests.

Monthly summary for 2025-03 for repository hivemq/hivemq-edge focusing on business value and technical achievements. Key themes include deliverables around XML/schema validation, versioned asset/device/stream definitions, testing improvements, and CI/stability improvements.

February 2025 (2025-02) delivered secure admin access, robust test infrastructure, and MTConnect integration groundwork for hivemq-edge. Highlights include enabling HTTPS for the Admin API with verification tests, fixing root-path redirection for the Jersey server, refactoring tests to AssertJ for readability, and establishing MTConnect protocol adapter scaffolding with HTTP header support and a working HTTP client plus start/poll tests. These efforts improved security posture, reliability, maintainability, and time-to-value for MTConnect-enabled deployments.
