&gt; Go is language of choice on cloud.<p>I don&#x27;t think this makes any sense. Javascript is the assembly language of the web because it&#x27;s the <i>only</i> choice for the web (or more specifically, the browser). At best, any other legitimate choice will just compile to JavaScript, which is why it&#x27;s thusly named. Go has no such privileged position; it&#x27;s not even clear what it would mean to be the &quot;language of choice on the cloud.&quot; You can write cloud software in any language you want, provided that the language has libraries for networking. All of the features you list are great, but none of them are exclusive to Go, nor are they required for cloud computing.
