connect-rs

This Rust crate provides a reliable, fault-tolerant, and brokerless message-queue abstraction over asynchronous network streams.

Why?

When building networked applications, developers shouldn't have to focus on repeatedly solving the problem of reliable, fault-tolerant message delivery over byte-streams. By using a message queue abstraction, crate users can focus on core application logic and leave the low-level networking and message-queue guarantees to the abstraction.

Protobuf

This crate relies on the use of Protocol Buffers due to it being widely adopted and industry-proven. All messages are Protobuf messages that are packed into a Protobuf Any type and then sent over the wire. Message recipients must decide what Protobuf message type it is, and correspondingly unpack the Any into a particular message type.
