  DESCRIPTION
  In this project-based course, we will build a complete REST
    API
  in Go from scratch and deploy it to the cloud, ready to handle
  real traffic and scale affordably. Our journey begins by
  creating a simple TCP server, which will help us explore the
  net/http package in Go and understand the basics of handling
  network communication. Next, we?ll dive into the theory behind
  building reliable and composable Go web applications. From
  there, we?ll develop our project step-by-step, covering
  carefully curated topics such as request handling, middleware
  creation, database integration, request and database
  optimisations and rate limiting to equip you with the skills
  needed to ship real backend services to the cloud and manage
  real-world traffic efficiently. This course aims to provide
    you
  with the foundational knowledge required to build and
    understand
  backend systems, implement industry best practices, and create
  production-ready APIs that are secure, scalable, and
  maintainable. It is not just a step-by-step tutorial, but a
  comprehensive learning experience that prepares you for real-
  world scenarios. Legal Notice: All product and company names,
