Don’t default to microservices: You’ll thank us later!
We believe microservices shouldn’t be the default and that companies should start with monoliths until reality actually demands they scale and shift from one node to a cluster of nodes. As a result, we offer clustering on an open source basis because we want to support realistic growth. Read on for details!
Container CPU Requests & Limits Explained with GOMAXPROCS Tuning
When running Go apps in Kubernetes, default CPU thread scheduling can conflict with cgroup CPU limits. The runtime sees all host CPUs, but the container may only be allowed a fraction of one. This often leads to early throttling. Properly configuring GOMAXPROCS avoids this waste and improves stability.
gRPC in Go: Streaming RPCs, Interceptors, and Metadata
Go’s gRPC implementation uses code generation to create type-safe client and server interfaces. Streaming RPCs allow sending multiple messages over a single connection, perfect for real-time updates and continuous data flows. Interceptors provide middleware-like functionality for authentication, logging, and error handling without modifying your core service logic.
