groupcache VS go-kit

As shown in the title, DREAMEMO is a distributed cache with out-of-the-box, high-scalability, modular-design features.The groupcache implementation is referenced, and re-structured, specific module differentiation is as follows:

I remember one of the first real-world uses of Go being the groupcache package: https://github.com/golang/groupcache (to serve Chrome downloads, IIRC?)

> comes with a cache filling mechanism. Whereas memcached just says "Sorry, cache miss", often resulting in a thundering herd of database (or whatever) loads from an unbounded number of clients (which has resulted in several fun outages), groupcache coordinates cache fills such that only one load in one process of an entire replicated set of processes populates the cache, then multiplexes the loaded value to all callers.

I read that group cache (https://github.com/golang/groupcache) can be used to sync servers around a key.

I've not tried this myself, but I've seen it suggested to use groupcache (https://github.com/golang/groupcache) to sync your servers.

https://github.com/golang/groupcache is managing distributed caching that addresses thundering herd problem of memcache.

I really enjoyed google's https://github.com/golang/groupcache. Learned both about the language, and quality network application design

golang/groupcache (Go): groupcache is a caching and cache-filling library, intended as a replacement for memcached in many cases.

To implement service discovery in our GoLang microservice we will use GoKit, a toolkit for microservices that provides support to auth, log, service discovery, tracing and more. For this starter code the mod already installed, you can skip this step

My company uses go-kit

For reference my company Go projects are built with (go-kit)[https://gokit.io/] design patterns.

5. kit. The kit framework is a programming toolkit for building robust, reliable, and maintainable microservices in Golang. It is a collection of packages and best practices that offer businesses of all sizes a thorough, reliable, and trustworthy way to create microservices. Go is a fantastic general-purpose language, but microservices need some specialized assistance. As a result, the kit framework offers infrastructure integration, system observability, and Remote Procedure Call (RPC) safety. Golang is a first-class language for creating microservices in any organization thanks to its composition of numerous closely related packages that together form an opinionated framework for building substantial Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs).It was created with interoperability in mind, and developers are free to select the platforms, databases, components, and architectural styles that best suit their needs. The disadvantage of using go-kit is that it has a high overhead for adding API to the service because of how heavily it relies on interfaces. Documentation Link: https://github.com/go-kit/kit

At first I was confused but this GitHub user/org is completely different from the massively popular go-kit/kit https://github.com/go-kit/kit

https://github.com/go-kit/kit#related-projects

go-micro seems like it does a bit too much, like service discovery and balancing within the framework when that's likely better handled by an Envoy/Istio.
