Open Source Go Networking Software

Prometheus is a leading open source systems and service monitoring solution. It works by collecting metrics from configured targets at given intervals, evaluating rule expressions, and then displaying the results. It can also signal an alert if a condition is observed to be true. What sets Prometheus apart from other monitoring systems is its highly dimensional data model, powerful query language, autonomous single server nodes, among many other distinguishing features. It also offers several client libraries for easy instrumentation of services, as well as many integration options.

Lightweight and fast, native Go implementation. No C-bindings, just pure Go. Connections over TCP/IPv4, TCP/IPv6, Unix domain sockets or custom protocols. Automatic handling of broken connections, as well as automatic Connection Pooling (by database/sql package). Supports queries larger than 16MB. Full sql.RawBytes support. It provides intelligent LONG DATA handling in prepared statements. Secure LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE support with file allowlisting and io.Reader support. Optional time.Time parsing, as well as optional placeholder interpolation. db.SetConnMaxLifetime() is required to ensure connections are closed by the driver safely before connection is closed by MySQL server, OS, or other middlewares. Since some middlewares close idle connections by 5 minutes, we recommend timeout shorter than 5 minutes. This setting helps load balancing and changing system variables too.

Golang SQL database client for ClickHouse. There are two version of this client, v1 and v2, available as separate branches. v1 is now in a state of maintenance, we will only accept PRs for bug and security fixes. Uses ClickHouse native format for optimal performance. Utilizes low level ch-go client for encoding/decoding and compression (versions >= 2.3.0). Supports native ClickHouse TCP client-server protocol. Compatibility with database/sql (slower than native interface!). Database/sql supports http protocol for transport. (Experimental). Marshal rows into structs (ScanStruct, Select). Unmarshal struct to row (AppendStruct). Connection pool Failover and load balancing. Bulk write support (for database/sql use begin->prepare->(in loop exec)->commit). AsyncInsert, named and numeric placeholders support. LZ4/ZSTD compression support. External data.
