Go is a welcomed simplicity to the stack in a world where everyone is over complicating software engineering by jumping to Kubernetes and micro-services. Simplicity really is where Go stands out against languages like Java. Yes, you may write more boilerplate and break DRY, but your code will be readable and won’t contain any hidden magic.

We spend most of our work day reading and trying to understanding code. What you see is what you get with Go!

Side note: Go also runs fabulously on Kubernetes and is great for building micro-services :)
