Any reason to not use https://github.com/moscajs/aedes? mqtt is a standard protocol. I see there is an mqtt adapter for kafka, and a broker to translate between systems.

yes, we did it as well. We are using the aedes broker, wrapped inside its own module/service. Here you can find the broker lib https://github.com/moscajs/aedes

Any of the open-source MQTT brokers out there should do the job. I personally use Mosquitto for most of my projects, but RabbitMQ, Aedes or any other broker should all just work.

Mosquitto: An open-source MQTT broker

I really like Mosquitto, I'd recommend it for quickly getting started hacking together IoT projects on the hobby / side project scale. One of our community (QuestDB) contributors put together a docker compose example that I thought was pretty nice for quick prototyping, could be convenient for someone here:
