Hi,

I can see that there are number built-in protocol adapters in HiveMQ Edge [HiveMQ Edge :: HiveMQ Documentation](https://docs.hivemq.com/hivemq-edge/index.html)

My question is whether any/all of these are supported in the open source version or is it only available in the paid version?

Thanks,  
Ambrose

Hello @Ambrose

Welcome to HiveMQ community forum, glad to see that you are interested in HiveMQ and HiveMQ edge.

Yes, all these protocols are supported in the open source version of HiveMQ Edge. The license is required only for:

- Offline buffering
- Data hub
- Commercial support

All adapters and bridge functions are free to use.

Kind regards,  
Sheetal from HiveMQ Team
