Part 1: Go System Design — CAP, PACELC & Clean Architecture Primer
Series Hub: System Design Masterclass | Next Chapter: Part 2: L4/L7 Load Balancing, API Gateways & eBPF Routing → Prerequisite: This is Part 1 of the System Design Masterclass series. Familiarity with basic distributed systems concepts and Go syntax is assumed. Answer-first: System design in Go balances CAP and PACELC trade-offs across consistency, availability, and latency. Clean Architecture isolates core business logic behind strict Go interfaces, while dependency injection decouples domain entities from database and transport protocols. Deploying this pattern guarantees sub-50ms P99 latency bounds, zero-allocation memory pooling, and resilient microservice state synchronization. ...
