Fusioncat is currently in its alpha stage. The main API server is located at: https://api.staging.fusioncatalyst.io/Please note that breaking changes and bugs are to be expected, as the product is still under active development.

​
What is Fusioncat?

Fusioncat is a schema-first development platform that simplifies building event-driven and asynchronous applications. It provides a unified approach to managing complex distributed systems by centralizing schema definitions, versioning, and code generation across multiple programming languages. Think of Fusioncat as the “single source of truth” for all your API contracts, message formats, and event definitions - ensuring consistency across your entire technology stack.

​
Why Async Communication Matters

In modern software architecture, asynchronous communication has become critical for building scalable, resilient applications. Here’s why:

​
🚀 Scalability

Async systems can handle thousands of concurrent operations without blocking, allowing your applications to scale horizontally with demand.

​
🛡️ Resilience

When services communicate asynchronously, temporary failures don’t cascade through your system. Messages can be queued and processed when services recover.

​
⚡ Performance

Non-blocking operations mean your services can process multiple requests simultaneously, dramatically improving throughput and reducing latency.

​
🔄 Decoupling

Services don’t need to know about each other’s implementation details - they only need to understand the message contracts, enabling independent deployment and scaling.

​
The Fusioncat Advantage

​
1. Schema-First Development

Define your data structures once, and Fusioncat ensures consistency across all services, languages, and teams. No more schema drift or version mismatches.

​
2. Multi-Protocol Support

Whether you’re using Kafka for event streaming, RabbitMQ for task queues, or webhooks for external integrations, Fusioncat provides a unified interface.

​
3. Automatic Code Generation

Stop writing boilerplate code. Fusioncat generates type-safe models, serializers, and client libraries in TypeScript, Python, Java, and Go.

​
4. Version Management

Schema evolution is inevitable. Fusioncat’s built-in versioning ensures backward compatibility while allowing your APIs to evolve.

​
