Two design-goals [design-goals](https://github.com/nats-io/nats-general/blob/master/architecture/DESIGN.md) were simplizity and performance. These are adopted by selecting [golang](https://golang.org/) for the server implementation and reducing the memory footprint for both: server- and client-side. The server-side provides simple and efficient horizontal scaling (e.g. deploying it inside kubernetes) and the small client-footprint allows us to use it im embedd-systems, edge-computing and IoT devices e.g. for command and controll use-cases. Also the long list of existing [integrations](https://docs.nats.io/compare-nats#integrations) and the plugin-systems brings a great flexibilty.
