Eventually, I was able to wrap my head around it and made a basic web API. The API had one endpoint that accepted a URL for an Rss feed, fetched the feed, cached it in memory and returned it in a response. I was dabbling with making an Rss reader app with Ionic, when I ran into CORS errors with some sites. This Rss Proxy API was set up to be a way around that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I implemented the API twice. First time in Go and second time in C#\/Asp.net core. They both performed well, however there was a noticeable difference when I tried to containerize them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Go image (22.6MB) was under 1\/10th of the size of the Dotnet image(358.51mb). The Go image could have been smaller but I added a Swagger User Interface, to mimic the functionality that Dotnet provides out of the box. Its resting memory utilization was also much smaller than Dotnet, with the Go container using 6% of RAM while the Dotnet container used 18% or RAM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are probably some ways to optimize the Dotnet image. I tried using chiseled containers<\/a> , but ran into issues getting it to work. With time I imagine the difference in image size between Dotnet and Go APIs would decrease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
