.Go Programming Blueprints. Build real-world, production-ready solutions in Go using cutting-edge technology and techniques - Second Edition

Go is the language of the Internet age, and the latest version of Go comes with major architectural changes. Implementation of the language, runtime, and libraries has changed significantly.

• The compiler and runtime are now written entirely in Go.

• This book shows you how to build powerful systems and drops you into real-world situations.

The garbage collector is now concurrent and provides dramatically lower pause times by running in parallel with other Go routines when possible.This book will show you how to leverage all the latest features and much more. You will learn to develop high quality command-line tools that utilize the powerful shell capabilities and perform well using Go's in-built concurrency mechanisms.

• You will get a feel for app deployment using Docker and Google App Engine.
• Each project could form the basis of a start-up, which means they are directly applicable to modern software markets.

Scale, performance, and high availability lie at the heart of our projects, and the lessons learned throughout this book will arm you with everything you need to build world-class solutions.
