📨 Decoupling systems through reliable, async communication

Asynchronous messaging decouples producers from consumers and makes distributed systems more resilient. This category covers message queues, pub/sub patterns, event streaming with Kafka, delivery guarantees, dead letter queues, and the architecture patterns that make event-driven systems robust at scale. When you need services to communicate without depending on each other's availability, messaging is the answer.
