The Go Software Stack

Build Full-Stack, Scalable Applications with Go

The Go Software Stack is your complete guide to integrating the power of Go with modern back-end tools and technologies-from RESTful APIs to databases, containers, and microservices. Whether you're building enterprise-grade systems or lightweight cloud services, this book shows you how to design and implement production-ready apps using the entire Go ecosystem.

Designed for developers who want to go beyond syntax and build real-world software, this book brings together practical patterns, best practices, and integrations that modern teams rely on.

What You'll Learn: Build robust REST APIs with Go's net/http, mux, and gin

Connect and manage data with SQL (PostgreSQL, MySQL) and NoSQL (MongoDB)

Structure scalable Go microservices using clean architecture

Containerize applications with Docker for development and deployment

Implement service discovery, logging, health checks, and monitoring

Use environment variables and config files for secure, flexible setup

Secure your APIs with JWTs, OAuth, and middleware

Communicate across services with HTTP, gRPC, and message queues

Deploy Go apps to cloud environments or Kubernetes clusters

Design maintainable, testable, and idiomatic Go codebases

This is the missing manual for building serious applications with Go-from first request to final deployment.

Modern systems need modern stacks. Go is ready. Are you?
