Cinema - Example of Microservices in Go with Docker, Kubernetes and MongoDB

Overview

Cinema is an example project which demonstrates the use of microservices for a fictional movie theater. The Cinema backend is powered by 4 microservices, all of which happen to be written in Go, using MongoDB for manage the database and Docker to isolate and deploy the ecosystem.

Movie Service: Provides information like movie ratings, title, etc.
Show Times Service: Provides show times information.
Booking Service: Provides booking information.
Users Service: Provides movie suggestions for users by communicating with other services.

The Cinema use case is based on the project written in Python by Umer Mansoor.

The project structure is based in the knowledge learned in:

Golang structure: https://peter.bourgon.org/go-best-practices-2016/#repository-structure
Book Let's Go: https://lets-go.alexedwards.net/

Container images used support multi-architectures (amd64, arm/v7 and arm64).
