For leading enterprises such as Rivian and Walmart to rapid growth startups like Replit and Personal.AI, NATS is becoming the defacto platform for delivering newly developed edge applications where data and micro-services need to be accessed closer to the user whether for performance or to reduce escalating cloud costs.
Bio said, “Companies are increasingly shifting beyond the cloud to the edge to better anticipate and address customer and operational needs of speed and data management. As they do this, legacy technologies are not built for distributed cloud architecture and optimizing user experience, Synadia has experienced rapid growth and widespread customer adoption due to the flexibility and reliability of its Adaptive Edge platform and its ‘secure by design’ architecture which meets the growing industry demand to improve performance.”
Founded in 2017 by CEO Derek Collison, the creator of NATS, Synadia entered the market to address the challenges of edge and multi-cloud computing. It has established itself as a leader in developing and supporting highly available, low-latency applications and microservices for multi-cloud and edge environments.

Collison said, “Building on the rapid success of the NATS open-source project, our Synadia Cloud and Synadia Platform offerings continue to drive exceptional value, With the support of Forgepoint Capital and our other investors, Synadia is well-positioned to provide real-time and secure access to services and data in any geography, with any cloud provider, and at any edge location. This funding further validates our product-market fit, accelerates our momentum, and underscores the significant opportunity in front of us to further power the proliferation of modern distributed systems.”
Franco Sabini, Head of IT, Trading Online at Fineco said, “By partnering with Synadia to run NATS, we have seen great improvements in performance over our existing communication layer, while reducing costs, the number one bank in Italy according to the Forbes World’s Best Banks List 2022. “NATS provided us with superior performance over competitive systems. When we factored in that it also has a key-value (KV) store built in, and does not require us to run load balancers or service meshes, we have reduced complexity and thereby costs by nearly three times.”
