golang-for-nodejs-developers VS fastapi

Fiber is fast and resembles the Node.js express framework, making it easier for a Node.js developer to transition to using Go. The complete code discussed in this article can be found in this repo.

To me makes sense what you are planning to do. You can start by having a look at this. Be careful about your mindset and you will be fine.

🌐 Note: Also, I recommend visiting the GitHub repository by Miguel Mota called Golang for Node.js Developers. It describes the basic principles for a smoother transition of your backend from JavaScript to Go in a fairly straightforward way.

Lol, after deeper looking at that better benchmark I see they measure "hello world" :) https://github.com/miguelmota/golang-for-nodejs-developers here I found Graphql benchmark

In this tutorial, I will demonstrate how to use Burr, an open source framework (disclosure: I helped create it), using simple OpenAI client calls to GPT4, and FastAPI to create a custom email assistant agent. We’ll describe the challenge one faces and then how you can solve for them. For the application frontend we provide a reference implementation but won’t dive into details for it.

That’s when I found FastAPI.

An API application framework (such as FastAPI)

It’s been my experience that async Python frameworks tend to turn IO bound problems into CPU bound problems with a high enough request rate, because due to their nature they act as unbounded queues.

This ends up made worse if you’re using sync routes.

If you’re constrained on a resource such as a database connection pool, your framework will continue to pull http requests off the wire that a sane client will cancel and retry due to timeouts because it takes too long to get a connection out of the pool. Since there isn’t a straightforward way to cancel the execution of a route handler in every Python http framework I’ve seen exhibit this problem, the problem quickly snowballs.

This is an issue with fastapi, too- https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/issues/5759

Fast API.

We will create our API using FastAPI, a modern high-performance web framework for building fast APIs with Python. It is designed to be easy to use, efficient, and highly scalable. Some key features of FastAPI include:

FastAPI is a modern, fast, web framework for building APIs with Python 3.7+ based on standard Python type hints. It is designed to be easy to use, fast to run, and secure. In this blog post, we’ll explore the key features of FastAPI and walk through the process of creating a simple API using this powerful framework.
