Design and implement a distributed event-driven inventory synchronization platform for a multi-region e-commerce system handling 10M+ daily transactions. Use Go for backend services, PostgreSQL for transactional storage, Redis for caching and distributed locks, Kafka for event streaming, and gRPC for inter-service communication. Include support for idempotent event processing, optimistic concurrency control, eventual consistency reconciliation jobs, circuit breakers, structured logging, OpenTelemetry tracing, and zero-downtime schema migrations. Build CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions, containerization with Docker, infrastructure provisioning with Terraform, and Kubernetes deployment manifests with autoscaling and rolling updates. Implement JWT authentication, RBAC authorization, rate limiting, retry policies with exponential backoff, dead-letter queues, and comprehensive integration and load testing. Optimize for low latency, horizontal scalability, fault tolerance, observability, and developer experience while maintaining clean architecture and high test coverage.
