NATS Connection Failures and Network Partitions

Detects high-severity failures in NATS messaging systems when clients experience repeated connection failures followed by network partitions. These failures can lead to complete message delivery disruption and system-wide instability.

This rule helps catch issues such as:

• Network connectivity problems between NATS clients and servers
• NATS server crashes or restarts causing client disconnections
• Network partitions leading to client isolation
• Connection timeouts due to network latency or server overload
