📣 News

News or announcements involving NATS.

ICYMI, nats.net.v2 is now nats.net. For context, there are two .NET clients. This change was to swap out the default client to the new version which uses async I/O, has an improved API, and better performance. The v1 client is available here.
Running your own OSS NATS cluster? Synadia recently launched a “Bring Your Own NATS” offering for Synadia Cloud which allows you to securely connect your private NATS cluster to Synadia Cloud. This allows you to take advantage of Synadia Cloud features while you retain control over your NATS cluster. Read more on the blog post announcement.
Have you been curious about Nex? A private beta sign-up for Applications for Synadia Cloud! This will enable running workloads directly on Synadia Cloud to augment or replace existing workloads running on other providers. Check out the blog post for more details and the sign-up form for the waiting list.

Opportunities for engagement on NATS preview features, new projects, and Synadia products.

There is a preview out for a major version of nats.js! The motivation for this change was to consolidate the various supported backend runtimes (Node, Deno, and WebSockets), but also to decouple the modules of core, streams, KV, and object store more intentionally. Not all applications use all NATS features, so this was an effort to separate concerns and minimize what needs to be imported. To learn more check out the updated README on the nats.js repo. Let us know what you think in the JavaScript Slack channel!
