Production Go

Reactive Publishing

Build lightweight, hyper-efficient backend systems that deploy instantly and scale effortlessly.

In modern cloud computing, microservices have become bloated. Heavy runtimes, bloated container images, and deep dependency trees introduce security vulnerabilities, slow down deployment pipelines, and drive up infrastructure costs.

Production Go delivers a practical, no-nonsense blueprint for building zero-dependency microservices and cloud-native APIs from scratch. By leveraging the Go standard library and avoiding the trap of bloated third-party frameworks, author Takehiro Kanegi demonstrates how to engineer clean, maintainable, and blindingly fast production systems.

• Frameworkless Architecture: Build robust routing, middleware, and HTTP handlers using only Go's built-in capabilities.

• True Zero-Dependency Design: Eliminate external packages to drastically reduce your attack surface and achieve near-instant compilation.

• Cloud-Native Optimization: Design stateless APIs optimized for containerization, minimal memory footprints, and rapid horizontal scaling.

• Production-Ready Patterns: Implement structured logging, robust error handling, graceful shutdown, and resilient database connectivity.

Whether you are a seasoned software engineer looking to stream your cloud infrastructure or a backend developer transition to Go, this book provides the engineering discipline and code patterns required to ship production-grade systems with confidence.

Stop fighting dependency hell. Start building for production.
