High-Throughput Web Scraper & TLS Fingerprint Bypass

Architecture: A production-grade concurrent web scraper in Go utilizing goquery for DOM parsing and a sub-process transport layer to bypass TLS fingerprint blocking (JA3/JA4 fingerprinting).

---

1. Architectural Overview

Modern cloud platforms and e-commerce sites block naive Go net/http clients by inspecting the TLS Client Hello packet (cipher suite ordering, extension lists, elliptic curves).

To achieve high throughput without headless browser overhead: 1. Transport Layer: Invokes optimized network transports or sub-process socket handles (curl) with rotating session cookies to mimic real browser TLS signatures. 2. Parsing Pipeline: Streams raw HTML into Go goquery document trees for CSS selector extraction. 3. Structured Normalization: Deserializes specifications, dynamic pricing, and image URLs into JSON data models.
