  Project mention: Best practices for documenting your microservices/sproc project? | reddit.com/r/dotnet | 2021-06-05

  Besides documentation, if you don't know what connects with what, I'd suggest adding the observability to your services (not sure if https://opentelemetry.io/ is already completed for .NET, or it's still better to use e.g. https://opentracing.io/). Anyway, at least use the tracing https://www.jaegertracing.io/ or built-in Azure App Insights distributed tracing to get a nice overview in a form of a graph what are the service dependencies, potential bottlenecks, coupling, etc.

  Fast key-value DB in Go.

  

  Project mention: Show HN: Volument – Our take on website analytics | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-05-18

  We're using nats.io for event streaming and pub/sub. The sessions are aggregated in memory, then they go to Badger (https://github.com/dgraph-io/badger), and finally the daily aggregates are easily distributable and immutable JSON files.

  We're setting a session identifier to sessionStorage and those id's are wiped out once the session is processed and leaves the server memory. We worked together with a privacy specialist to ensure this is not violating GDPR. Details on what/how we collect data is here:

  Database migrations. CLI and Golang library.

  

  Project mention: Simple database migration tool using fs.FS and sql.DB | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-06-16

  I was always a bit confused about the complexity of my previous migration tool of choice, https://github.com/golang-migrate/migrate . While it does the job, setup of it on new projects is always a bit of a confusion. I wanted to build something simpler. My thought process:

• kingshard

  0 5,703 0.3 Go

  A high-performance MySQL proxy

• go-cache

  1 5,073 0.0 Go

  An in-memory key:value store/cache (similar to Memcached) library for Go, suitable for single-machine applications.

  Project mention: In-memory caching solutions | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-02-01

  Though pretty simple but have a look at https://github.com/patrickmn/go-cache

• BigCache

• go-pg

  2 4,673 8.2 Go

  Project mention: 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. | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-04-18

  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.

• bbolt

  4 4,517 5.5 Go

  An embedded key/value database for Go.

  

  Project mention: Introducing Weaviate, a fast modular vector search engine with out of the box support for state-of-the-art ML models written in Go | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-04-12

  We initially went for using bolt (and later bbolt) which is the same store that powers etcd. It uses a B+tree approach. It worked great, but we're not happy with the write performance. We're currently in the process of switching to a custom LSM-tree-based approach, which is what you typically find in DBs with great write performance (e.g. Cassandra).
