2nd Edition
by Matthew A. Titmus
Learn how to use Go's strengths
to develop services that are scalable and resilient even in an
unpredictable environment. With this book's expanded second edition, Go
developers will explore the composition and construction of cloud
native applications, from lower-level Go features and mid-level
patterns to high-level architectural considerations.
Each
chapter in this new edition builds on the lessons of the last, walking
intermediate to advanced developers through Go to construct a simple
but fully featured distributed key-value store. You'll learn about Go
generics, dependability and reliability, memory leaks, and
message-oriented middleware. New chapters on security and distributed
state delve into critical aspects of developing secure distributed
cloud native applications.
With this book you will:
- Learn the features that make Go an ideal language for building cloud native software
- Understand how Go solves the challenges of designing scalable distributed services
- Design and implement a reliable cloud native service by leveraging Go's lower-level features such as channels and goroutines
- Apply patterns, abstractions, and tooling to effectively build and manage complex distributed systems
- Overcome stumbling blocks when using Go to build and manage a cloud native service
