Apache Kafka is publish-subscribe messaging rethought as a distributed commit log.
Fast
A single Kafka broker can handle hundreds of megabytes of reads and writes per second from thousands of clients.
Scalable
Kafka is designed to allow a single cluster to serve as the central data backbone for a large organization. It can be elastically and transparently expanded without downtime. Data streams are partitioned and spread over a cluster of machines to allow data streams larger than the capability of any single machine and to allow clusters of co-ordinated consumers
Durable
Messages are persisted on disk and replicated within the cluster to prevent data loss. Each broker can handle terabytes of messages without performance impact.
Distributed by Design
Kafka has a modern cluster-centric design that offers strong durability and fault-tolerance guarantees.

Mosquitto is an open source (BSD licensed) message broker that implements the MQ Telemetry Transport protocol versions 3.1 and 3.1.1. MQTT provides a lightweight method of carrying out messaging using a publish/subscribe model. This makes it suitable for "machine to machine" messaging such as with low power sensors or mobile devices such as phones, embedded computers or microcontrollers like the Arduino. A good example of this is all of the work that Andy Stanford-Clark (one of the originators of MQTT) has done in home monitoring and automation with his twittering house and twittering ferry. Andy gave a talk on this at OggCamp that explains a bit about MQTT and how he uses it. The slides and audio are available online at slideshare
