What SQL library are you using?
I usually work with PostgreSQL and have used https://github.com/go-pg/pg. https://github.com/uptrace/bun is its successor.

Clean Transactions in Golang Hexagon
And it is go-pg. I personally really like it as a query builder (rather than an ORM) and it has good performance. It has one feature which I'll tell you about next, without which I would have struggled to implement what I had in mind. But this feature is available in other libraries too, so don't rush to rewrite your code.

bun and go-pg both seem to work fairly well for these kind of purposes.

Connecting with database
For database communication we will use go-pg module. You can install it by running go get github.com/go-pg/pg/v10. This will install version 10 of go-pg module, which is latest version at the time of writing this guide. Now create new directory internal/database/ and file database.go inside of it.

How much do you agree completely switching from Java to Go? I have total 9yrs of experience in Java but now I am interested in Go.
gorm.io/gorm`, or `github.com/go-pg/pg` if you need something more feature-rich. I would avoid using `go-kit` and `go-micro` "frameworks" unless you have some special requirement for it. But you can take a look to have an idea of what Go "framework" may look like.

Are there any decent ORMs in Golang?
When I don't use one, I'm typically using SQLx or (if using Postgres) pgx with scany https://github.com/georgysavva/scany (slightly better API than SQLx and great performance since you can use the native interface from pgx if desired whereas many database drivers only offer the text-based interface).

How do you handle scanning of db.Rows?
If you want something like sqlx and you already know you're using pgx, a better choice is probably https://github.com/georgysavva/scany since you can use the native interface and get the same key features.

Does gorm worth learning?
There's also bqb. We use it in production at our company -- much better than raw SQL. If you couple it with something like scany then you get more of the ORM benefits without the complexity.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing go-pg and scany you can also consider the following projects:
GORM - The fantastic ORM library for Golang, aims to be developer friendly
sqlx - general purpose extensions to golang's database/sql
bun - Incredibly fast JavaScript runtime, bundler, test runner, and package manager – all in one
ngrok - Unified ingress for developers
ent - An entity framework for Go
godotenv - A Go port of Ruby's dotenv library (Loads environment variables from .env files)
SQLBoiler - Generate a Go ORM tailored to your database schema.
xlsx - Go library for reading and writing XLSX files.
usql - Universal command-line interface for SQL databases
bun - SQL-first Golang ORM
godropbox - Common libraries for writing Go services/applications.
