Working with Microservices in Go (Golang) (Udemy.com)

Started this course as a way to learn Golang for a new backend role, but managed to get so much more out of it. To truly understand the networking involved between the microservices, I would recommend you to not use the exact ports / endpoints used by Mr Sawler. It is a lot of content packed into 11 hours. On the surface, it may seem like you can complete the course in 3-4 days, but in actual fact, I spent close to 30 hours tinkering with the code and breaking things.

Excelente curso para dominar arquitecturas distribuidas con Go. Trevor Sawler explica con maestría la integración de Docker, gRPC y RabbitMQ, priorizando siempre la escalabilidad y las mejores prácticas de la industria. Una inversión imprescindible para cualquier desarrollador que busque transicionar de aplicaciones monolíticas a sistemas de microservicios robustos y de nivel empresarial. Totalmente recomendado.

What an experience, this is probably one of the most complete and useful courses that I've seen which can be used in a corporate environment. Even though I used this course to start learning golang, I found it to be quite interesting and never boring (like other traditional beginner courses). I know that I'm missing the core concepts of go, but I'm coming from 6 years experience in C#, biggest difference thus far is the syntax and the placement logic (not using classes for everything). Thank you, this was a fun course!

I've done a few of your Go Programming Languages now and you are a great teacher. I learned so much about backend web development that I couldn't have learned anywhere else. Now, thanks to your inspiration, I have created simple microservices of my own as well as multiple projects using Go for the backend. Thanks a ton for teaching and making the world of programming a better place. You do a great thing!!!

This is my second GO course taught by Trevor Sawler. He seems very knowledgeable about the language. While I didn't notice any glaring issues with the course as I did the "Building Modern Web Applications with Go (Golang)" course, I do wish he would include more comments within the code to help further clarify what the code is doing. While he does seem to explain what the code is doing...that's fine during the session lecture, but if you come back to the code sometime after taking the course, unless you are able to engross yourself in the language it would be easy to forget what is happening at the line level of code, much less what each function may be doing. I have always heard the code comments are a must, but they are lacking in both of these courses. IMHO! One other minor nitpick, I wish that at least one JSON, RPC, and gRPC call was functional within the finished product to maintain those examples. Otherwise good course.

I like the course, however I feel you need to explain more in the part of kubernetes with the different Operating systems, I use debian but I had problems when I wanted to probe minikube tunnel and I don't know why I can't access to the localhost, I created the pods in kubernetes I can see with kubectl get svc but I don't get to access and I can't finish that section, I share you my repo in github: https://github.com/FranciscoGB03/go, I hope you can help me, and thanks for the course

First, I would like to thank Trevor for the course. It is very well explained, the lessons are well structured, with the content thoroughly explained, and an excellent teaching method. Something that is not seen in all courses. This one, in particular, focuses on microservices and Golang. As it is a fast-paced course, it starts with a focus on the Go language and the construction of each microservices. The project, folders, files and the code is very well done too. In the following chapters, it shows how to interconnect these microservices using various existing technologies. Each technology takes into consideration its requirements and should be used depending on each project ahead. Throughout the course, the code is well-written and organised, just like the project itself. It covers a great amount of information with a focus on microservices, without diving too deep into other details of the Golang language. If you have a basic knowledge of Go, you will be able to absorb the content of this course very well. If not, you can still follow along, but I recommend taking a basic course beforehand. Congratulations, Trevor! I am very pleased with the content, and I will definitely look for other courses from your portfolio. Thank you for sharing.

Awesome course! It's really suitable also for experienced developers that want to switch to Go and learn more about Docker Swarm and Kubernetes. After I finished the course I already had a simple Go app that is working and now I can start building my own. It's a good think that the author is not using any frameworks and just some libraries so I was able to understand Go and now adopting a framework seems easy. But I definitely recommend also reading a book or taking a course just about Go, if you are new to the language, before taking the course so the learning curve is even smoother.

This course covers a lot of grounds, building go microservices, service composition, containerization, multi-tier architecture. It is a good intro to building microservices. It is definitely one of the good ones I can find anywhere. It is one of the rare ones I stayed to the end of the course. (Now I wish some of the things could have been done more realistically, eg using viper config rather than hardcoding. Centralized configuration, centralized logging, feature flagging and token-based authentication, these are a must in real world microservice development.)

Usually the instructor will provide examples using tested code. Being a Linux person, the code is not condusive to windows. As a result I have wasted a lot of time trying to get the machine configured to work and it might take forever to get through the course. I may have to wait to resume when windows tested version of this is part of actual lectures instead of digging through questions and answers which has been very hit and mis.
