Go Programming Cookbook, Second Edition: Over 75+ recipes to program microservices, networking, database and APIs using Golang - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

With Go 1.25, you get a runtime that reads the CPU quota of its own container, a standard library that closes long-standing gaps in filesystem safety and JSON handling, and a testing package that makes concurrent behaviour deterministic. And this second edition puts all of it to excellent use.

This book is all about building one system, rather than a bunch of snippets in a folder. This means you can size a connection pool based on its own statistics, run 40,000 jobs on a fixed number of goroutines, retry serialisation conflicts without corrupting a ledger, and hold tens of thousands of open connections without exhausting file descriptors. Each recipe tackles a real problem, and then there's the simplest code to solve it, along with the reasoning behind when to use it again. Whether you're a developer who's already got some experience with Go and now needs it to get by in production, we've got you covered.

Key Learnings

• Size worker pools and concurrency limits from measured CPU and memory budgets
• Confine untrusted file paths so traversal attacks fail in the kernel
• Test 30 secs timeouts in milliseconds using testing/synctest and its virtual clock
• Propagate one timeout budget across every service hop without starving downstream callers
• Retry serialisation conflicts and deadlocks safely with bounded, jittered transaction backoff
• Find goroutine leaks from a profile and prove their absence in tests
• Read escape analysis and pprof profiles to remove the allocations that matter
• Drain response bodies so HTTP connections return to the pool and stay reused
• Ship schema changes across rolling updates using expand, switch, and contract releases
• Harden services with govulncheck, minimal images, and secrets that never touch disk
