Go Micro abstracts away the details of distributed systems. Here are the main features.
- **Service Discovery** - Automatic service registration and name resolution (default: consul or mdns)
- **Load Balancing** - Client side load balancing built on discovery (default: random hashed)
- **Message Encoding** - Dynamic encoding based on content-type (default: protobuf and json-rpc)
- **Sync Streaming** - RPC based request/response with support for bidirectional streaming (default: http/1.1 and http2)
- **Async Messaging** - Native pubsub messaging built in for event driven architectures (default: point to point http)
- **Service Discovery** - Automatic service registration and name resolution. Service discovery is at the core of micro service
development. When service A needs to speak to service B it needs the location of that service. Consul is the default discovery
system with multicast DNS being a local option.
- **Load Balancing** - Client side load balancing built on service discovery. Once we have the addresses of any number of instances
of a service we now need a way to decide which node to route to. We use random hashed load balancing to provide even distribution
across the services and retry a different node if there's a problem.
- **Message Encoding** - Dynamic message encoding based on content-type. The client and server will use codecs along with content-type
to seamlessly encode and decode Go types for you. Any variety of messages could be encoded and sent from different clients. The client
and server handle this by default. This includes proto-rpc and json-rpc by default.
- **Sync Streaming** - RPC based request/response with support for bidirectional streaming. We provide an abstraction for synchronous
communication. A request made to a service will be automatically resolved, load balanced, dialled and streamed. The default
transport is http/1.1 or http2 when tls is enabled.
- **Async Messaging** - PubSub is built in as a first class citizen for asynchronous communication and event driven architectures.
Event notifications are a core pattern in micro service development. The default messaging is point-to-point http/1.1 or http2 when tls
is enabled.
