Hands-On Software Architecture with Golang

By: Jyotiswarup Raiturkar

Overview of this book

Building software requires careful planning and architectural considerations; Golang was developed with a fresh perspective on building next-generation applications on the cloud with distributed and concurrent computing concerns. Hands-On Software Architecture with Golang starts with a brief introduction to architectural elements, Go, and a case study to demonstrate architectural principles. You'll then move on to look at code-level aspects such as modularity, class design, and constructs specific to Golang and implementation of design patterns. As you make your way through the chapters, you'll explore the core objectives of architecture such as effectively managing complexity, scalability, and reliability of software systems. You'll also work through creating distributed systems and their communication before moving on to modeling and scaling of data. In the concluding chapters, you'll learn to deploy architectures and plan the migration of applications from other languages. By the end of this book, you will have gained insight into various design and architectural patterns, which will enable you to create robust, scalable architecture using Golang.

Summary

The Travel Search feature is slightly different for both flights and hotels. But by extracting common elements such as WorkTree and Listing Ingestor Lib, we can leverage coding done at one place in other places.

In the booking design, we saw how the EDA pattern helps us cleanly segregate various workflows. We use a persistent queue such as Kafka instead of channels, because we want resiliency of instances going down. The workflow can take a long time, and we don't want a bad customer experience, such as a missed booking, due to transient infrastructure blips.

In the next chapter, we will look at the deployment details of Golang applications.
