NATS is a lightweight cloud‑native messaging system with 30+ client languages, over 100 million server downloads and more than a thousand contributors; it runs 3‑node fault‑tolerant clusters via a single‑line installer, supports clusters/superclusters and leaf nodes, and adds transparent global service latency tracing without app changes. Users include Mastercard, Tinder and systems reporting 50k–350k node orchestration; Jetstream ships as a tech preview for multi‑tenant persistent streams, and native MQTT, WebSocket and WebAssembly hooks are planned.
