Why the use of Go instead of something more traditional like c++, or even rust ? Isn’t it primarily used for infrastructure scripting and will affect performance of the db
Honestly, I enjoy programming in Go and been using it on a daily basis for the last few years. Most importantly, when it comes to performance it's often not the language that matters but how you structure your code. It's very much possible to build a terrible C++ program which thrashes memory and will be very slow. And I feel like Go is actually lacking those nice data-oriented libraries.
I got the name in English wrong, it should have been Thomas.

Bringing it into the IT context, there are the visionaries that believe something is possible no matter what, and then there are those that even with stuff running in front of them cannot move beyond "yes but...".
Ironically, in the 80's in what concerns home computers and game programming, both C and C++ also belonged to the "yes but..." group.
