## What it is
Seata-go is the Go implementation of Apache Seata, a distributed transaction framework for microservices architectures. It interoperates with the Java Seata server, providing TM and RM clients that support AT, TCC, SAGA, and XA transaction modes.

## Use cases
- manage distributed transactions across Go microservices
- ensure data consistency when each service has its own database
- implement saga-based long-running transactions in Go
- add TCC compensation logic to Go services
- interoperate Go services with Java Seata transaction coordinator

## When to choose
- your Go microservices need cross-service transactional consistency
- you already run a Seata Java TC server and want Go services to join
- you need AT, TCC, SAGA, or XA transaction modes in a Go stack

## When to avoid
- your application is a monolith with a single database where local transactions suffice
- you need a fully standalone Go transaction coordinator without the Java Seata server
- you use non-relational databases without ACID support

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: microservices, database, middleware
- domain: microservices, databases
- platform: go, windows
- tags: distributed-transactions, saga, tcc, xa, at-mode, two-phase-commit, data-consistency, seata, linux, macos, docker, kubernetes
