Go Kit - A Standard Library for Distributed Programming

Explore the development of Go kit, a comprehensive toolkit for distributed programming in Go, in this GopherCon 2015 talk by Peter Bourgon. Learn how Go kit aims to address the underrepresentation of Go in large, consumer-focused companies by providing a standard library for service-oriented architectures. Discover the toolkit's goals, non-goals, and structure through an example service implementation. Gain insights into composable decorators, declarative composition, and the overall architecture of Go kit. Understand how this toolkit can elevate Go's position in modern enterprise environments and support coherent distributed programming at scale.
