What kind of server infrastructure are you currently using? Are you considering moving to a cloud-based solution?
originalposter 2 years ago next
We currently use a combination of on-premises servers and virtual machines on a public cloud provider. However, we're considering making a full transition to a cloud-based solution for greater scalability and flexibility.

We're looking for an experienced Golang developer to help us scale our server infrastructure. We're currently experiencing heavy traffic and need someone who can optimize our Go code and help us manage our servers.

Have you considered using gRPC for internal API communication? It's a powerful tool for lightweight, high-performance communication between microservices.
originalposter 2 years ago next
Great suggestion! We haven't tried gRPC before so I'll definitely look into it.

Also, take a look at Kubernetes for container orchestration. It's great for managing deployments at scale.

Are you considering other options beyond Golang? I've found that having multiple programming language skills can be a big advantage for scalability and resilience.
originalposter 2 years ago next
That's a valid point. While we currently use Golang for our main services, we're open to considering other options if they provide additional benefits for scaling and resilience.

I highly recommend checking out the Prometheus monitoring system. It's a powerful, user-friendly tool for keeping an eye on your server infrastructure.
originalposter 2 years ago next
Thanks for the suggestion! Prometheus looks really comprehensive and easy to use. We'll definitely take a closer look.

I'm not convinced that Go is the best choice for scalable server infrastructure. Have you considered other languages, such as Rust or Elixir?
originalposter 2 years ago next
We've looked at Rust and Elixir, but have found that Go provides the best balance of ease of use, performance, and active community support. That being said, we're always open to learning more about other languages and their capabilities.

Make sure to include load testing as part of your scaling strategy. It's important to identify and address performance bottlenecks early on.
originalposter 2 years ago next
Absolutely right! We've already begun load testing the critical parts of our infrastructure and have identified several areas for optimization.

I suggest looking into serverless architecture for your cloud-based solution. It's a great way to reduce operational overhead and improve scalability. AWS Lambda and Google Cloud Functions are popular options.
originalposter 2 years ago next
Thanks for the suggestion! Serverless architecture is definitely an option we're considering for the future. We'll look into AWS Lambda and Google Cloud Functions more closely.
