Go routines are the building blocks of concurrency in Golang. Golang, which is known for it’s simplicity has made handling concurrency as easy as writing go in front of any function. In this series we will deep dive into golang concurrency patterns, and one by one unearth the basics and Read more…
DuckDB is an embedded SQL database engine that is designed for OLAP-style workloads. It is designed to be fast, reliable, and easy to use, and it supports a variety of data types and SQL features. In this blog post, we will explore using DuckDB with Golang. But before going forward, Read more…
The SOLID principles are a set of guidelines for writing maintainable and scalable software. They were introduced by Robert C. Martin in the late 1990s and have since become an integral part of software engineering best practices. The SOLID principles are relevant today as they provide a roadmap for writing Read more…
Design Patterns are an important ingredient of clean, clear, and scalable code. In this series, we have been exploring the various Design Patterns and how to use them with Golang. In this article, we are going to discuss Proxy Design Pattern in Golang. Proxy Design Pattern, like an adapter pattern, Read more…
It is a moral responsibility of code to crash, of bugs to appear, functionality to break and developers to fix them. But to fix them, developers should know when a certain bug appears, and the context of the bug. To get this first-hand information, we set up monitoring services, which Read more…
GraphQL has been a new entry into the world of APIs after the REST API era. It was released by Facebook in 2015 and hence since slowly being adopted into the mainstream of API development. In this post, I shall write as to why I decided to use GraphQL in Read more…
So we are back again, after a long delay to study the Bridge Design Pattern in Golang. The Bridge Design Pattern is more or less used to avoid unnecessary complexity in code. Just like the adapter pattern, It is a structural design pattern that allows the separation of abstraction from Read more…
Ever since taking control of Github in its hands, Microsoft has been making regularly making it more attractive. Github Actions is one of the noteworthy features rolled out after Microsoft’s acquisition of GitHub. In this article, we are going to understand what a Github Action is and then try to Read more…
Adapter Design Pattern is one of the most intuitive design patterns. We can very easily figure out why and where it is needed. In this article, we will try to build an intuition for it and try to implement the Adapter Design Pattern in Golang. Let us try building the Read more…
Welcome to the second and last part of the series Consistent Hashing for Distributed Cache Systems. In our previous article, we first established what a Distributed Cache system is and what we use Distributed hashing for. We also saw a sample usage of distributed hashing. We then saw the problem Read more…
