## Overview

NATS is a lightweight, high-performance messaging system: a single small binary, subject-based addressing, and optional JetStream persistence that adds streams, consumers, and exactly the durability you ask for. Where Kafka is heavy infrastructure and RabbitMQ is a feature-rich broker, NATS aims to disappear — connect and send.

That simplicity is deliberate: core NATS is fire-and-forget pub/sub and request-reply; JetStream adds persistence, consumer groups, and redelivery when you need them. This skill covers subject design, choosing core vs JetStream, consumer patterns, and operating NATS clusters.

## When to use

- Adding lightweight messaging between services.
- Choosing between NATS, Kafka, RabbitMQ, or Redis pub/sub.
- Designing subject hierarchies and stream topology.
- Implementing request-reply and service discovery patterns.
- Using JetStream for persistent streams and work queues.
- Clustering NATS for HA (superclusters, leaf nodes).
