GOLD - An Open Source Dynamic Domain Service

Creating new domain objects in a microservice architecture can result in the following quandry: should an existing service be augmented or should a new service be created. When the objects do not fit within existing services, this results in having pico services, many trivial services to support the new domain objects.

Enter GOLD - a GraphQL based open source library that allows for the dynamic specification of domain objects and management of their instances. It is the central component of a single microservice that powered superbowl.com for Superbowl LI. Going foward, the service will power key aspects of both nfl.com and the mobile products.
