watermill VS zitadel

I’ve successfully worked on projects using an asynchronous event-driven way of connecting services. I really like the decoupling of business logic and the events triggering it. I highly recommend https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill to be more flexible when it comes to choosing the actual technology driving the async patter. It might be NATS today but requirements might change and you need to change. Watermill prepares you for this.

Highly recommend https://watermill.io lib for building async apps (using among others pub/sub patterns). It greatly decouples your code from the underlying technology and gives you the freedom to choose depending on the environment (e.g dev, prod). For dev or small scale purposes, it supports pub/sub purely based on go channels.

Look at this library: https://github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill

Watermill is a good pubsub abstraction. You can start with native go channels and grow into a cloud pubsub or Kafka/Pulsar if you need to.

These conditions have led me to discover two packages watermill.io and go-kit. Both of these seem to do what I want and I am thinking of implementing the project using watermill and go Chanels and deploying to a server or some sort.

github.com/ThreeDotsLabs/watermill package provides a framework for building event-driven applications. It allows easy communication between independent components by decoupling the sender and the receiver.

My personal favorite tools: - https://github.com/go-kit/ for building services (although it's not necessary a great tool for prototyping) - https://github.com/gorilla/mux router (although it's been recently deprecated, so I'm looking for a similar, maintained library) - https://entgo.io/ ORM - https://watermill.io/ for messaging

ZITADEL Cloud — A turnkey user and access management that works for you and supports multi-tenant (B2B) use cases. Free for up to 25,000 authenticated requests, with all security features (no paywall for OTP, Passwordless, Policies, and so on).

One of the challenges we see is providing self-service for team management. That includes letting an admin assign roles to their users, manage user lifecycle (eg through sso), and setting up security policies. For sure you can build the basics, but it becomes complex later on if you manage a lot of tenants or or more enterprise customers. For Auth only there are many solutions out there that work great. There's only a few solutions with multi-tenancy at the core, though, like https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel
