Building a High-Performance HTTP/2 Server in Go

Introduction to HTTP/2 and Go When it comes to building high-performance web servers, the choice of protocol and programming language can make all the difference. HTTP/2, with its multiplexing, header compression, and server push capabilities, is a significant improvement over HTTP/1.1. Go, with its lightweight goroutines, efficient networking library, and robust standard library, is an ideal choice for developing such servers. Why HTTP/2? HTTP/2 offers several advantages over its predecessor, including: ...

Developing a High-Performance UDP Server in Go

Introduction to UDP and Go UDP (User Datagram Protocol) is a connectionless protocol that allows for fast and efficient data transfer. It is widely used in applications where low latency and high throughput are critical, such as online gaming, video streaming, and real-time communication. Go, with its lightweight goroutine scheduling and efficient networking libraries, is an ideal choice for developing high-performance UDP servers. Let’s visualize the flow of data in a UDP server-client communication: sequenceDiagram participant Client participant UDPServer participant Goroutine1 participant Goroutine2 Client->>UDPServer: Send UDP Packet UDPServer->>Goroutine1: Process Packet (go routine) Goroutine1->>Client: Send Response Client->>UDPServer: Send Another UDP Packet UDPServer->>Goroutine2: Process Packet (go routine) Goroutine2->>Client: Send Response Note over UDPServer: Concurrent handlingof multiple clients ...
