Hi Yun, Yes, you're correct but with one additional point. Your special client isn't just for saving messages to the database, it's for the server side application processing - i.e. turning it into a chat application rather than simply clients connected to an MQTT broker. It would also be doing the client online/offline detection and sending notifications via ANPS for example.
Just one other point - the Python module mosquitto.py is to allow you to implement MQTT clients in Python, it isn't a wrapper around the broker. It's still what you want though!
