С моим клиентом, написанным с использованием Paho MQTT клиентской библиотеки , я в итоге использовал следующее расширение класса Client:
import random
from paho.mqtt.client import *
class ClusterClient(Client):
"""A subclass of paho.mqtt.Client that supports connecting to a cluster of
mqtt brokers. connect() and connect_async() additionally accept a list
of hostnames or host/port tuples:
connect("host1")
connect(["host1", "host2", "host3"]) # use default port 1883
connect(["host1", ("host2", 8883), ("host3", 8883)])
Hosts to connect to are chosen randomly. If a host disappears the client
automatically connects to another host from the list.
