✅ Boost performance of Go applications with profile guided optimization

In a previous post, we discussed how the Cloudflare team used profile-based optimization (PGO) to improve their applications. PGO allows the compiler to optimize code based on real-world profiler data, resulting in more efficient and performant applications.

In this talk, we'll dive deeper into how PGO works under the hood.

✅ Building Resilient Go Applications: Key Error Handling Techniques

Bill outlines a three-step approach: logging errors once, determining recovery or termination, and preventing further error propagation. Bill also introduces the concept of error signaling semantics, treating errors as values that signal issues throughout the call stack. Additionally, he emphasizes the importance of different error signals, such as trusted errors and shutdown signals, to enhance code reliability and maintainability.

✅ Give your Go app superpowers with an Embedded NATS Server

One powerful, but lesser known feature of the NATS server is that, if you are using the Go programming language, you can embed the NATS server directly into your application.

Not only can you bake a NATS server directly into your application binary, but you can even connect to that NATS server without going through a network interface, making NATS an awesome choice for building modular monoliths, or for simply the foundation for any programs connectivity, or a data layer with lots of options for storing and moving that data.

❤️ GopherCon UK: Debugging Go Applications - Matt Boyle, Cloudflare

GopherCon UK just concluded, featuring a host of excellent talks. Today, we’re spotlighting Matt Boyle’s presentation on Debugging Go Applications:

In this talk, I will perform a live demo of different debugging techniques that Go developers can use to figure out why their application is not performing optimally (or even correctly).

We will start with a basic Go application that isn't functioning as expected. By introducing logs, using the debugger, adding some Prometheus metrics, adding pprof, and integrating distributed tracing, we demonstrate some of the powerful techniques available to diagnose and repair applications, not only while they're running locally but also when they're deployed in production!

Along the way, I'll share stories about how these specific techniques have been scaled to help me solve complex issues at Cloudflare scale, as well as provide warnings on when to use these techniques sparingly (for example, the cardinality of Prometheus metrics).
