1. Easy Publish and Consume Library

The Easy Publish and Consume library provides an easy method to:

• publish data using HTTPS: EpcPublisher

• announce that information via DNS-SD: EpcDispatcher

• and finally consume it

You can use this library as a key/value store published to the network, using encryption, authentication and service discovery.
