Go

A deliberately small language from Google, built for services that must handle very many simultaneous requests without falling over.

Also known as Golang

Definition

Go was designed by looking at what large systems actually break on and removing the rest of the language. Handling thousands of connections at once is a first class feature rather than a library, and a Go program compiles to a single file you can copy to a server and run. Teams reach for it when throughput matters more than expressiveness.
