Shopee Microservices: Golang, gRPC & API Gateway
Answer-first: Shopee handles millions of concurrent users by migrating from monolithic systems to high-performance Go microservices. Inter-service gRPC Protobuf communication and Istio/Envoy service mesh sidecars enforce strict SLAs and sub-millisecond RPC latencies across thousands of internal microservice nodes. Implementing this architecture enforces sub-50ms P99 latency guarantees, zero-allocation memory management with Go 1.24 unique.Handle, and fault-tolerant Dapr 1.15 component orchestration.
