Claudia vs goa

Claudia vs goa: What are the differences?

Developers describe Claudia as "Deploy Node.js microservices to AWS Lambda and API Gateway easily". Claudia helps you deploy Node.js microservices to Amazon Web Services easily. It automates and simplifies deployment workflows and error prone tasks, so you can focus on important problems and not have to worry about AWS service quirks. On the other hand, goa is detailed as "A design driven approach for building microservices in Go". goa is a framework for building microservices in Go using a unique design-first approach. goa provides a novel approach for developing microservices that saves time when working on independent services and helps with keeping the overall system consistent.

Claudia and goa can be primarily classified as "Microservices" tools.

Some of the features offered by Claudia are:

• Create or update Lambda functions and Web APIs from Node.js projects hassle-free
• Automatically configure the Lambda function for commonly useful tasks
• Automatically set up API Gateway resources the way Javascript developers expect them to work

On the other hand, goa provides the following key features:

• Creating a service with goa starts with the design. The goa DSL lets you describe the global properties, types and endpoints that make up the service API. The apidsl package docs provides a quick reference to all the DSL functions.
• Once the design of the API is in place goagen generates the corresponding data structures, validation code and handlers. Handlers are defined as interface methods. Implementing the service is thus as simple as implementing the generated interfaces.
• The best part about the goa DSL is that the engine is completely decoupled. Plugins can implement custom DSLs to extend the concepts described in the design. Plugins can also generate arbitrary outputs.

Claudia and goa are both open source tools. goa with 3.46K GitHub stars and 389 forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Claudia with 3.21K GitHub stars and 221 GitHub forks.
