Mastering Go for DevOps

By: Engin Polat

Overview of this book

Mastering Go for DevOps shows you how to harness Go to build production-ready tools, from interactive CLIs to observability integrations and custom Terraform providers. Mastering Go for DevOps takes a hands-on approach, teaching you how to create robust CLI applications, develop RESTful APIs and gRPC services, and integrate monitoring solutions with Prometheus. You'll extend Terraform with custom providers, write comprehensive unit and integration tests using the Terraform SDK, and automate your testing in CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions. You'll also explore cloud-native development by integrating Go applications with AWS and Azure SDKs and deploying serverless functions with AWS Lambda and Azure Functions. Whether you're building automation scripts or distributed systems, this book equips you with the skills to streamline and scale your infrastructure operations. By the end of this book, you'll know how to build Go-based DevOps tools, automate infrastructure provisioning, and create cloud-native systems ready for real-world deployment.

Working with gRPC and Microservices Architecture

In modern software development, applications are often built using a microservices architecture where different services handle different tasks and communicate with each other. gRPC is a powerful tool that helps these services communicate efficiently. Unlike traditional REST APIs, gRPC uses Protocol Buffers (Protobuf) to serialize data in a compact binary format, making data transfer faster and reducing bandwidth usage. This is especially useful in microservices environments where performance and reliability are critical. By using gRPC, services can communicate with low latency, making applications more responsive and scalable.

gRPC also provides advanced features such as bidirectional streaming, allowing continuous data exchange between clients and servers in real time. This is beneficial for applications that need to handle large volumes of data or require instant updates. Additionally, gRPC supports strong typing and automatic...
