  Gin is a HTTP web framework written in Go (Golang). It features a Martini-like API with much better performance -- up to 40 times faster. If you need smashing performance, get yourself some Gin.

  

Project mention: How to Build and Document a Go REST API with Gin and Go-Swagger | dev.to | 2024-03-08

Now let’s define the functions that will be called whenever a request hits our API. All the functions will be referencing the context provided by the Gin web framework. Paste the following code below the sample slice we just added to api.go:

Even when going multi-cloud you can employ different strategies. Vault is definitely one of them, but you can also use federation to exchange one cloud's credentials for another's, giving you the ability to centralize secrets in one of them. You can use a layer of abstraction like GoCloud [0]. You can also build for each cloud separately and decide either not to centralize secrets at all, or build some trivial bespoke tooling to synchronize some of them. I'm not endorsing any of the options, just pointing out that Vault isn't the only one.

• quicssh

  9 779 2.7 Go

  SSH over QUIC

Project mention: SSH3: SSH using HTTP/3 and QUIC | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-16

SSH over QUIC exists: https://github.com/moul/quicssh.

I don't see any advantage of layering HTTP/3 here. It adds more friction, and the only advantage it brings is being able to "hide" the SSH server over a URL path. I guess x.509 certificates would be fine, but SSH hostkeys, SSHFP or TOFU is enough and far more secure (because it implicitly pins the server public key).

It's a relatively new project from the looks of it, so I'd definitely not use it anywhere half important having to create something interesting with QUIC and HTTP/3.
