Top 23 Go Microservice Projects

k8s is the whole enchilada: IaaS, routing, container mgmt., etc.
So terraform plus AWS ECS is roughly equivalent to k8s (or AWS ASGs and AMIs plus Docker.)
A crude analogy is that k8s is the distributed systemd, and is the most portable.
Saying "I know k8s." today generally also means you know the k8s ecosystem, including Istio, AWS Calico, etc.
(I tell startups just to use EC2 and "yum update" as long as possible.)

Project mention: Fun with generics: REST HTTP handler proof-of-concept | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-11-15
This comes dangerously close to functional services as popularized by Twitter et al and encapsulated in the well known Finagle library. I don’t know but I strongly suspect /u/peterbourgon was heavily influenced by this while developing the notion of Endpoints in his reasonably well known go-kit library, although it’s significantly less general due mostly to limitations in Go’s type system.

dapr
Dapr is a portable, event-driven, runtime for building distributed applications across cloud and edge.
Project mention: FOSS News International #2: November 8-145, 2021 | reddit.com/r/fossnews | 2021-11-15Dapr is a set of APIs that makes it easy for developers to write distributed applications. Dapr runs as a sidecar process next to an application, whether on Kubernetes or any other environment.

go-zero
go-zero is a web and rpc framework written in Go. It's born to ensure the stability of the busy sites with resilient design. Builtin goctl greatly improves the development productivity.

Eli Bendersky has an excellent series where they walk you through building a REST API in Go by first starting with the standard library and then introducing a router such as gorilla or chi and finally switching over to using a complete web framework. This series shows some of the downsides of sticking with the standard library entirely and how extra libraries such as the two router packages above can be extremely helpful.

Project mention: Ask HN: Does anyone else find the AWS Lambda developer experience poor? | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-04-18
I can also recommend serverless.com framework for local development and running lambdas offline.
AWS provides a docker image for emulating DynamoDB which works great for local dev and will commonly be paired with lambdas.
Another option I have used recently for implementing node web services is https://github.com/apex/up which also has a nice local dev experience.

Project mention: Can you recommend a good design tool for golang? | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-08-05
I looked for some cloud uml tools, goa.design Not sure currently, I haven't tried them yet. Want some recommendation for our agile dev team.

space-cloud
Open source Firebase + Heroku to develop, scale and secure serverless apps on Kubernetes
-
Does it bug anyone else when people come out promoting their "new" thing that has used the name of an existing well established thing? https://github.com/solo-io/gloo like... how hard is it to search and see the name's already taken?
-
Take a look at https://github.com/oam-dev/kubevela and the open application model

Project mention: Using Telepresence 2 for Kubernetes debugging and local development | dev.to | 2021-04-15
Kubefwd works similar to Telepresence by making your local environment think it is inside the cluster. The networking tunnel is one direction only. Telepresence is much smarter as it also makes the other cluster applications think that your local app is inside the same cluster. So with Kubefwd you only get 50% of what basic Telepresence offers. Telepresence also has volume mounting support for more advanced scenarios.
-
Another important change to make is that when you create the cluster, change the Nodes in the "Default pool" to use the COS (not COS_CONTAINERD) image type. There are some underlying issues when using Kuma with GKE, as noted in this GitHub issue, and this is the currently recommended workaround. Otherwise, you will hit pod initializing issues that affect certificate provisioning.

Project mention: Jolie, the service-oriented programming language | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-05-17
Super interesting! We're doing something similar with Encore [1], but instead of building a whole new language we let you program using Go. Looking forward to see where this goes :)

goka
Goka is a compact yet powerful distributed stream processing library for Apache Kafka written in Go.
You might want to try: https://github.com/lovoo/goka -- it uses levelDB to keep state from a stream. The application we wrote in-house with goka can process (keeping state) approximately 800+ messages/sec per consumer in a consumer-group.
