Tutorial: Build High-Throughput APIs with Go 1.24 and Gin 1.10
The article provides a tutorial on building high-throughput APIs using Go 1.24 and Gin 1.10. It highlights the performance improvements in Go's garbage collection and Gin's routing capabilities, achieving significant request per second rates. The tutorial aims to help backend teams optimize their API performance and reduce costs.
- ▪API throughput is a major bottleneck for 68% of backend teams.
- ▪Go 1.24's improved garbage collection reduces pause times by 62%, enabling sustained 47k requests per second.
- ▪Gin 1.10 introduces a radix tree router with 38% lower allocation overhead than its predecessor.
