A guide to Golang microservices
Golang microservices add efficiency, agility, modularity, and scalability to microservices, increasing performance and improving the user experience. Read on to learn more.
Software architectures are greatly influenced by the size and scale of the software applications. With growing size, the code base becomes complex. With scale, the deployment becomes challenging. The result: debugging becomes an increasingly time-consuming process for developers.
The Twelve-Factor App methodology is a go-to guide for people building microservices. In its time, it presented a step change in how we think about building applications that were built to scale, and be agnostic of their hosting. As applications and hosting have evolved, some of these factors also need to. Specifically, factor 11: Logs (which I’d also argue should be a lot higher up in the ordering).
