Note
In release 4.0.19, major improvements were made to the disk-backed History Store. Details on determining the setting for an MQTT Transmission History Store for pre 4.0.19 modules can be found here.

Introduction

MQTT Store and Forward allows data to be buffered locally at a client when connections are down to the MQTT Server infrastructure and deliver that data when the connection is restored. This feature is critical in most applications because if we lose connection to the MQTT Server we will lose data if it is not buffered locally. When Store and Forward is enabled and the edge node detects a disconnect to the MQTT Server, tags will be stored locally in a history store. When the edge node can reconnect to the MQTT Server, it will publish any stored tags. The rate at which these stored tags are flushed from the history store is configurable to prevent any delays in the delivery of live data.
