- stock_toaster 13y agoAfter some googling, I found this description here[1]. It sounds like a straightforward pub-sub server (similar to redis pub/sub?). [1]: http://www.activestate.com/blog/2013/01/building-paas-ruby
- jvoorhis 13y agoNATS is the pub-sub messaging protocol and implementation created by Derek Collision, who architected the first iteration of Cloud Foundry. It is a simple pub-sub service at its core, but the Ruby and NodeJS clients implement various messaging patterns similar to what is supported by ZeroMQ. It is used extensively within Cloud Foundry.
