7 tips to optimize back-end written in Go
1. Use the latest version of Go π
Make sure you are using the latest version of Go to take advantage of all the performance improvements and bug fixes.
2. Use Goroutines π
Goroutines are lightweight threads that can be used to run multiple tasks concurrently, which can significantly improve performance.
3. Use Profiling Tools π
Profiling tools such as pprof can help you identify bottlenecks in your code and optimize them accordingly.
4. Use Interfaces π
Interfaces allow you to write code that is more flexible and easier to maintain, while also improving performance by avoiding unnecessary type conversions.
5. Avoid Unnecessary Allocations π
Allocations can be expensive, so try to avoid them whenever possible by reusing existing objects or using data structures that donβt require allocations (e.g., slices).
6. Use Caching π
Caching can help reduce latency and improve performance by avoiding unnecessary calculations or database queries for frequently requested data.
7. Optimize Database Queries π
Make sure your database queries are optimized for speed and efficiency by using indexes, caching, and other techniques as needed.
