The Skill unit helps solve the problem of building polyglot systems by demonstrating how Go services can interoperate with .NET services, and by providing a concrete example of a geo-matching service within a ride-sharing architecture.
Build and run the cab-go service within your development environment using Aspire's AddContainer functionality with the Dockerfile located in ../services/cab-go/.

To build a geospatial matchmaking service, this Skill implements an in-memory spatial index that matches drivers based on location data consumed from a Kafka topic and handles ride requests via gRPC. It targets high volume, low latency microservice operations.
Cross-language interoperability is achieved by using gRPC for inter-process communication and buf to generate Go code from protobuf files. This allows the Go service to seamlessly integrate and operate within a .NET-centric polyglot architecture.
Yes, this Skill combines Kafka for consuming driver position pings and gRPC for handling ride requests simultaneously. It leverages Wolverine and OpenTelemetry to ensure robust system integration and observability across these concurrent operations.
The service is designed to build and run within your development environment using Aspire's AddContainer functionality. It utilizes a Dockerfile located in the services directory to provision the Go microservice container.
The best way to handle high volume, low latency matching in a polyglot architecture is using an in-memory spatial index paired with gRPC. This Skill provides a concrete example of matching drivers efficiently without relying on external database queries.
Buf is used to generate Go code from protobuf files to enforce schema consistency and streamline cross-language interoperability. It ensures the gRPC contract remains synchronized between the Go service and interacting .NET clients.
