Microservices with Go

Go Microservices Orchestration with Camunda

• Official Go client

  The github.com/camunda/zeebe/clients/go module provides the official Go client for Camunda. Pure Go, no CGO dependencies — easy to containerize and deploy.

• Concurrent job workers

  Go goroutines and channels make Camunda job workers highly concurrent by default. Process hundreds of parallel service tasks with minimal resource overhead.

• Context-aware operations

  All Go client operations accept a context.Context for cancellation, timeouts, and tracing. Integrate cleanly with your Go application's context propagation.

• gRPC streaming

  The Go client uses gRPC streaming to poll for jobs efficiently. Lower latency and higher throughput than REST polling-based approaches.

• Struct-based variable mapping

  Map BPMN process variables to Go structs using standard encoding/json tags. Type-safe variable handling without manual JSON parsing.

• Kubernetes-native

  Go's small binary size and fast startup make Camunda Go workers ideal for Kubernetes. Deploy as lightweight containers that start instantly.
