Migrating data-intensive microservices from Python to Go

In order for our systems to scale continuously and be resilient, they need to be constantly evolving. In this talk, I’m going to tell the store of how my team migrated a data-intensive microservice from Python to Go. First, we are going to start with the rationale behind the migration. Then we are going to go over the Python and Go tech stacks that we use. Last but not least, I’m also going to share our approach for migrating the service while running in production, adding new features and making sure there are no regressions.
