Instructor: Amrit Pal SinghLanguage: English

About the episode

In this episode, we'll cover how to use RabbitMQ with Golang for message queuing and handling asynchronous workloads, essential for building scalable, distributed systems.

Here's what you'll learn:

- What is RabbitMQ?  
  We'll briefly introduce RabbitMQ, explain how it works, and its key components like Producers, Exchanges, Queues, and Consumers.

- How RabbitMQ Works with Go:  
  We'll explore RabbitMQ's core architecture and how it helps decouples services, improves scalability, and handles asynchronous communication between services.

- Setting up RabbitMQ in Go:
  We'll walk through the setup process for RabbitMQ using Go, including how to install the necessary Go packages and start RabbitMQ on your machine.

- Building a Message Producer in Go:
  You'll learn how to create a message producer that sends messages to a RabbitMQ queue using the `AMQP` protocol. We'll also implement a simple web server using Gin to send messages to the queue.

- Building a Message Consumer in Go:
  Next, we'll build a message consumer that listens for messages from the RabbitMQ queue and processes them.

- Live Demo:
  We’ll demonstrate how to send messages to RabbitMQ using our producer and retrieve them using the consumer, all while monitoring RabbitMQ's management console.
