Building Microservices Using Rest APIs

In this chapter, we'll go on a journey to learn about the world of microservices. We'll learn about how they are structured, how they communicate, and how they persist data. The concept of microservices is a key concept to cover due to the fact that most of the modern cloud applications in production today rely on microservices to achieve resiliency and scalability.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics :

Deep diving into the microservices architecture
RESTful web APIs
Building RESTful APIs in the Go language

Key benefits

Build well-designed and secure microservices. Enrich your microservices with continous integration and monitoring.

Containerize your application with Docker

Deploy your application to AWS. Learn how to utilize the powerful AWS services from within your application

Description

Awarded as one of the best books of all time by BookAuthority, Cloud Native Programming with Golang will take you on a journey into the world of microservices and cloud computing with the help of Go. Cloud computing and microservices are two very important concepts in modern software architecture. They represent key skills that ambitious software engineers need to acquire in order to design and build software applications capable of performing and scaling. Go is a modern cross-platform programming language that is very powerful yet simple; it is an excellent choice for microservices and cloud applications. Go is gaining more and more popularity, and becoming a very attractive skill. This book starts by covering the software architectural patterns of cloud applications, as well as practical concepts regarding how to scale, distribute, and deploy those applications. You will also learn how to build a JavaScript-based front-end for your application, using TypeScript and React. From there, we dive into commercial cloud offerings by covering AWS. Finally, we conclude our book by providing some overviews of other concepts and technologies that you can explore, to move from where the book leaves off.

Je suis encore en lecture mais ce livre est un véritable combo de techno et aborde clairement l'articulation entre chacune d'entre elles.Affaire à suivre, je viendrai certainement compléter ce commentaire en fin de lecture.

The book is generally well written and helpful. It uses a "real live" project to explain how modern modern software development in a microservices architecture works. In addition to Golang, the book uses a state-of-the-art tech stack (MongoDB and DynamoDB, RabbitMQ and Kafka, ...) and DevOps approach (Docker, AWS, ...). I would consider myself on a beginner to intermediate level regarding Golang and could understand everything in the book without problems. However, as the book progresses, there are more and more mistakes in the listings. With growing complexity of the software, this becomes very confusing when comparing the text/listings in the book with the (mostly correct) code download from github. Also, in some places, the book would profit from a bit more background and outlook (e.g. structs are used as containers, but have only 1 variable in them...other variables are added in later sections of the book, but this is not mentioned and thus the motivation for using the struct remains unclear at first). All in all, I can recommend the book to those who want a good "full stack" introduction and overview into building a very modern web app.

Just finished the third chapter, it's good so far. It's not for complete beginners, but still it includes some much appreciated golang features refreshers.I've read comments complaining about the code, well, if you are not a complete beginner you'll figure it out pretty easily.So far it's a 5 stars for me, I'll update my note later...-- UPDATE --I read 80% of the book.Many mistakes in the code (that, we already knew), but also some bad practices in the architecture. But again, you'll spot them if you are not a complete beginner and read the book with a critical mind.I've seen no tests so far, and it's not covering at all the subscription and authentication of user, which I think is pretty important. No mention of caches like Redis either, ...Also the book needs an update on the tool used. Not using go mods, for example.
