There are many frameworks and libraries available that aim to help you to work with cloud services in Go. However, if you ask the Go community which is best, they'll probably suggest that you stick with the built-in packages.

We'll explore here how to work with the provided tools and add cloud service-based functionality to our code without additional dependencies.
