Go Development and Distributed Systems Engineering

Go Development and Distributed Systems Engineering focuses on utilizing the Go programming language to build efficient and scalable software systems. It covers a range of topics including database interaction (SQL, PostgreSQL, MySQL), distributed systems and messaging protocols, web services and APIs, as well as tools for configuration, testing, and deployment using modern technologies like Docker and Kubernetes. This field also explores the development of command-line interfaces, graphical user interfaces, and real-time messaging platforms.
