HTTP: - gRPC for microservices - graphql for combining microservices for the frontend

DB: - dynamodb/psql depending on features. aws-sdk or base go sql package. - redis for caching. go-redis package.

Stats/logging: - statsd/graphite/grafana - sirupsen/logrus for logging

I usually write a wrapper for packages that will automatically report stats + logging.
