Steps
Provision an EMQX Cloud (or EMQX Enterprise) cluster and connect devices to it, replacing the GCP Cloud IoT Core MQTT bridge
Configure device authentication using JWT, compatible with the auth model devices previously used against GCP
In EMQX's rule engine, create a rule matching the relevant MQTT topics
Add a GCP Pub/Sub resource under Rule Engine > Resources, supplying a Service Account JSON key and target Pub/Sub Topic ID
Attach a data-forward-to-GCP-Pub/Sub action to the rule so matched messages are republished into Pub/Sub
Known gotchas
the GCP Pub/Sub action requires a Service Account JSON key with Pub/Sub publish permission scoped to the target topic -- a misscoped key fails silently in the action log
EMQX Cloud and EMQX Enterprise have separate migration guides; resource/connector naming differs between the two
