Engineering: Go

When learning a new technology, there is no better approach than starting with a side project, getting your hands dirty with the code, and stumbling upon a dozen errors, which make the whole process memorable (and frankly enjoyable). In this tutorial, we will showcase how to build a simple URL Shortener application using only Go

Onnx (Open Neural Network Exchange) is an open-source artificial intelligence ecosystem that has become a cornerstone of Stream's product offerings. This versatile and powerful tool enables the creation, training, and deployment of machine learning models across various platforms and frameworks, providing a unified approach to AI development and implementation. At Stream, Onnx plays a pivotal

GStreamer is a powerful and versatile framework for video streaming and media processing. It's used widely in various applications due to its extensive capabilities for handling multimedia content. When combined with Go (Golang), a language known for its efficiency and ease of use, GStreamer can be employed to create robust streaming solutions. This article will

Since its creation by Google in 2007, Go (Golang) has emerged as a strong contender in the space of backend development, thanks to its simplicity, performance, robust concurrency support and other benefits. But with so many languages attracting developers' attention, is Go the right choice for your next project? In this article, we'll explore Go's

Welcome to Stream. If you’re reading the public version of this consider checking out our careers page. We’re currently hiring for Go roles of entry to principal/director levels. Stream is an API for building chat, live video and activity feeds. We power thousands of apps and reach over a billion end users. Apps like Strava,

TL;DR Stream released vg almost three years ago, and since its inception, Go has improved quite a bit in regards to its dependency management. Since Go has come so far, we’re now advocating that the community use native Go modules rather than vg. The Gist Stream provides an API as a service to build highly

Here at Stream, we use Go extensively, and it has drastically improved our productivity. We have also found that by using Go, the speed is outstanding and since we started using it, we have implemented mission-critical portions of our stack, such as our in-house storage engine powered by gRPC, Raft, and RocksDB. Today we are

This tutorial combines two of my favorite things, the Go programming language and images of SpaceX rocket launches. With Go rapidly picking up adoption in the developer community, its becoming one of the leading languages for building backend systems. Go’s performance is similar to Java and C++, yet it’s almost as easy to write as
