## What it is
TarsGo is a high-performance RPC and microservice framework for Go built on the Tars protocol, part of the Linux Foundation's Tars project. It enables building large-scale, high-concurrency backend services with Go's goroutine-based concurrency model.

## Use cases
- build microservices in go
- high performance rpc framework for golang
- migrate c++ tars services to go
- build high concurrency backend servers
- service-to-service communication with tars protocol
- deploy go microservices on kubernetes

## When to choose
- you are already using the Tars ecosystem with C++, Java, or PHP services
- you need high-throughput, low-latency RPC in Go
- you want a batteries-included microservice framework with naming, monitoring, and service management

## When to avoid
- you prefer lightweight libraries like gRPC with minimal framework overhead
- your team has no exposure to the Tars protocol or tooling
- you need REST-first or GraphQL APIs rather than binary RPC

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
