Summary
This second edition walks you through the full lifecycle of Go microservice development, from scaffolding and system design to cloud-native rollout. Learn to secure, observe, and fine-tune services that stay responsive under load.Key FeaturesDesign and deploy scalable microservices using gRPC,… Protocol Buffers and KubernetesDiscover industry best practices and gain insights into Go microservice development tools, patterns, and solutionsWork with hands-on Golang microservice examples in each chapterPurchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free PDF eBookBook DescriptionMicroservices with Go, Second Edition explains the key benefits and common issues faced by developers when working with microservices, helping you understand the problems microservice architecture solves, the issues it introduces, and how to tackle them. The author distils his 18+ years of experience in building scalable and reliable infrastructure to help you grasp the importance of using the right principles and standards to achieve all that microservice architecture has to offer. You'll see why Go is a popular choice for microservice development, as well as navigate its foundational aspects, including service scaffolding, discovery, data serialization, communication, deployment, and testing. After covering development, you'll move to maintenance and reliability. This second edition is fully updated with newly added topics, including security and compliance, distributed system challenges, and performance monitoring. The final section focuses on advanced concepts, such as system reliability, observability, maintainability, and scalability. Through best practices and practical examples, you'll learn how to apply key ideas to existing applications using previously scaffolded services. By the end of this book, you'll have gained hands-on experience in developing scalable, reliable, and high-performance microservices with Go.What you will learnLeverage event-driven architecture and messaging patterns for efficient microservice communicationAutomate testing, CI/CD pipelines, and deployment strategies for Go microservicesEstablish secure communication between microservicesOptimize microservice performance by monitoring, profiling, and debugging techniquesGet hands-on experience in cloud-native observability and deployment toolsExplore solutions to advanced distributed system scenarios, such as leader electionWho this book is forThis book is for all types of developers, from individuals interested in learning how to write microservices in Go to seasoned professionals who want to master the art of writing scalable and reliable microservice-based systems.
