Complete gRPC Coverage

Unary, server-streaming, client-streaming, and bidirectional streaming — all 4 service types with Go implementations, Proto definitions, and production patterns.

200+ Interview Q&A

Exact questions organized by topic — Protocol Buffers, service types, Go implementation, Salesforce Pub/Sub, error handling, security, observability, and system design.

Production Go Code

Real Go implementations: interceptors, retry with backoff, connection pooling, health checks, graceful shutdown, gRPC-Gateway, and Salesforce Pub/Sub subscriber patterns.

Salesforce Pub/Sub API

Full coverage of the Salesforce Pub/Sub gRPC API — Avro schema, event publishing and subscribing, change data capture, replay IDs, and production Go client patterns.

Security & Auth Mastery

mTLS, token-based auth, TLS configuration, interceptor auth patterns, certificate rotation, and securing gRPC services in Kubernetes and cloud environments.

Observability & Architecture

OpenTelemetry tracing, Prometheus metrics, structured logging, load balancing strategies, service mesh integration, and production-grade integration architecture patterns.

Built for real target roles

Not generic documentation. Every section calibrated to what Go backend engineers, integration architects, and platform engineers are actually tested on.
