About this course

Microservice architecture relies on fast, reliable inter-service communication, and gRPC combined with Go provides an industry-standard solution for distributed systems. This text-based course guides you step by step through creating robust backend services, from foundational protocol concepts to building a practical financial microservices architecture. You will master gRPC communication patterns and learn how to write maintainable Go code that handles streaming, authentication, and containerized deployment. What you'll learn: Learn core gRPC architecture, Protocol Buffers syntax, and service definitions. Implement unary, server streaming, client streaming, and bidirectional streaming RPCs. Secure service communication using TLS encryption and JWT authentication tokens. Handle system errors effectively using standard gRPC status codes and error details. Apply Go interceptors for request logging, context handling, and metadata processing. Containerize and configure Go microservices for deployment with Docker. The course begins with essential backend concepts, gRPC protocols, and Protocol Buffers syntax before guiding you through hands-on code examples, security practices, and containerization techniques. This course is ideal for backend developers who know basic Go syntax and want to learn microservice design patterns. Step into backend engineering and build scalable gRPC services today.
