This course is designed to teach students to build microservices that leverage the full power of the Go programming language. Each lesson introduces the concepts behind microservices and progressively builds on what was learned in the previous lesson. Lessons include an introduction to microservices and RESTful services, version control with Gorilla framework, validating JSON responses, documenting REST APIs with Swagger, auto-generating HTTP clients from swagger files, Cross-Origin Resource Sharing, handling files with Go standard library, HTTP multi-part requests, Gzip compression, introduction to gRPC and protocols, refactoring and gRPC bi-directional streaming. At the end of this course, students will be able to build microservices more effectively and efficiently.
