Half a decade with Go

Andrew Gerrand, sul Go Blog:

Today, Go has found a home in the cloud. Go arrived as the industry underwent a tectonic shift toward cloud computing, and we were thrilled to see it quickly become an important part of that movement. Its simplicity, efficiency, built-in concurrency primitives, and modern standard library make it a great fit for cloud software development (after all, that’s what it was designed for). Significant open source cloud projects like Docker and Kubernetes have been written in Go, and infrastructure companies like Google, CloudFlare, Canonical, Digital Ocean, GitHub, Heroku, and Microsoft are now using Go to do some heavy lifting.

Personalmente, vedo Go avere sempre più attenzione da parte di tutti, e lo vedo diventare oltre che sempre più grande anche sempre più stimolante. Io con Go ho cominciato da poco, ma non credo ci sia mai stato un momento migliore di adesso per impararlo.
