Liftbridge provides lightweight, fault-tolerant message streams by implementing
a durable stream augmentation for the NATS messaging system.
It extends NATS with a Kafka-like publish-subscribe log API that is highly
available and horizontally scalable. Use Liftbridge as a simpler and lighter
alternative to systems like Kafka and Pulsar or use it to add streaming
semantics to an existing NATS deployment.
See the introduction
post on Liftbridge and this post
for more context and some of the inspiration behind it.
