Go Micro is a pluggable framework for micro service development.

Overview

Go Micro provides the core requirements for distributed systems development including RPC and Event driven communication. The micro philosophy is sane defaults with a pluggable architecture. We provide defaults to get you started quickly but everything can be easily swapped out.

Plugins are available at github.com/micro/go-plugins.

Features

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)
