Hands-On Go : Microservices With Protocol Buffers & gRPC

🌟 Course Title: Hands-On Go: Microservices With Protocol Buffers & gRPC

🚀 Headline: Master Protocol Buffers (protobuf) & gRPC Implementation in Go for Microservice Architecture!

Course Description:

Embark on a comprehensive learning journey with our Hands-On Go: Microservices With Protocol Buffers & gRPC course. This meticulously designed curriculum is tailored to assist learners in mastering the implementation of Protocol Buffers (protobuf) and gRPC using the Go programming language within the context of microservice architecture.

What You'll Learn:

• Introduction to Protobuf: Dive into the fundamentals of protobuf, understand its style guide, and learn how to structure your course files effectively.

• protobuf Essentials: Explore scalar types, repeated fields, enums, and more. Get comfortable with protobuf JSON and nested messages, and learn about packages and the importance of schema evolution.

• gRPC Integration: Grasp the integration of gRPC with protobuf, and learn how to manage your gRPC repository using GitHub Actions. Understand gRPC status, error handling, resiliency (timeout, retry, circuit breaker), and implement a metadata server and client, as well as server and client interceptors.

• Hands-On Coding: Work on real-world tasks such as creating a banking application using gRPC and protobuf, integrating with a PostgreSQL database, and utilizing the Go Object Relational Mapper (ORM) for database operations.

Course Requirements:

• Must-Have: Basic knowledge of the Go programming language.

Tools You'll Use:

• Go programming language
• Protocol Buffers (protobuf)
• gRPC
• GitHub
• Visual Studio Code (or your preferred editor)

👩‍🏫 Course Delivery: This course is delivered in a lab-style teaching format. You'll tackle tasks and receive guidance with each step. If you encounter any issues, full solutions are available to help you proceed.

Course Breakdown:

This course contains over 130 lectures covering an array of topics essential for implementing microservices with protobuf and gRPC in Go. These include but are not limited to:

• Protobuf Introduction: Learn the basics and how to write effective protofiles.

• protobuf Style Guide & File Structure: Understand the style guide and organize your files like a pro.

• protobuf Data Types: Get hands-on with scalar types, repeated fields, enums, and more.

• Advanced protobuf Concepts: Explore any, oneof, maps, and nested messages.

• Protobuf JSON & Schema Evolution: Learn to read, write, and handle schema evolution gracefully.

• gRPC Fundamentals & Best Practices: Understand when and how to use gRPC, and manage your protobuf/gRPC repository with GitHub Actions.

• gRPC Service Implementation: Build unary, server streaming, client streaming, and bidirectional streaming services.

• Real-World Application: Create a banking application using PostgreSQL, handle transactions, exchange rates, and more.

• Error Handling & Resiliency Techniques: Master gRPC status handling, error handling on the client side, and implement resiliency techniques such as timeout, retry, and circuit breaker.

• gRPC Interceptors & Metadata: Learn to implement server and client interceptors, and use metadata for context propagation.

• gRPC-REST Gateway: Convert your gRPC API to a REST API and generate OpenAPI/Swagger documentation for easy integration with other systems.

By completing this course, you will have gained practical experience in building robust and scalable microservices using Protocol Buffers and gRPC within the Go ecosystem. You'll be well-equipped to tackle real-world challenges and create efficient, maintainable services. 🚀
