Hire NATS.io Experts | Nearshore Software Development

NATS.io is a simple, secure, and performant open source messaging system for cloud-native applications, IoT devices, and microservices architectures. You need an expert who can leverage NATS to build a fast, reliable, and scalable communication layer for your distributed systems. Our vetting process finds engineers who are masters of modern messaging. We test their ability to design messaging patterns, build resilient systems with NATS Streaming, and manage a NATS cluster at scale.

Is your messaging system complex and slow?

The Problem

Traditional enterprise messaging systems can be complex, bloated, and slow, creating a bottleneck in your distributed architecture.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We vet for engineers who are experts in NATS's simple, high-performance design. They must demonstrate the ability to build a messaging system that is lightweight, fast, and easy to operate, enabling low-latency communication between your services.

Proof: High-Performance and Lightweight Messaging
Are you struggling with message delivery and persistence?

The Problem

Core NATS is 'at-most-once' delivery, which is not suitable for all use cases. You need a way to ensure messages are delivered and to persist them for later processing.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our engineers are proficient in NATS Streaming (Stan) and JetStream. They are vetted on their ability to use these components to add persistence, message redelivery, and durable subscriptions to your messaging architecture, building a truly reliable system.

Our Technical Analysis for NATS.io

The NATS.io evaluation focuses on building high-performance, cloud-native messaging systems. Candidates are required to design a distributed application that uses NATS for communication, demonstrating their understanding of different messaging patterns. A critical assessment is their ability to use NATS Streaming or JetStream to build a reliable system with delivery guarantees. We also test their knowledge of how to secure and operate a NATS cluster in production. Finally, we assess their experience with a NATS client in a language like Go or Rust.
