Microservices power most of today’s modern applications, but as systems scale, performance becomes a bottleneck.
Migrating a critical microservice from Python to Go resulted in a 70% reduction in API latency, significantly improving system efficiency.
The switch was driven by Python's inability to handle the performance demands of a high-throughput microservice handling thousands of concurrent requests.
This article provides a step-by-step guide on migrating a Python microservice to Go and showcases real-world performance improvements after the migration.
