Go Micro
Go Micro is a pluggable framework for distributed systems 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.
