NATS Account Server

The NATS Account Server is an HTTP server that hosts and vends JWTs for nats-server 2.0 account authentication. The server supports an number of stores which enable it to serve JWTs from:

• a directory
• an NSC directory
• memory (for testing purposes)

The server can operate in a READ ONLY mode where it serves content from a directory, or in notification mode, where it can notify a NATS server that JWT in the store have been modified, updating the NATS server with the updated JWT.

Memory Resolver

For very simple installations, where JWTs are mostly static, the NATS server also supports a Memory Resolver that can be configured statically in the server's configuration file.
