Go is better than Java if you are using Go the same way Google is using it on their servers. Otherwise, if your goals in operating a server-based solution is not the same as Google’s, you probably are better off with Java. If I was building a server-based platform that was kind of like Google’s in terms of operations, scale, and software engineer philosophy, I’d probably embrace Go. Otherwise, for business applications, enterprise software situations, the large and tested solutions in the Java world are a huge advantage. Java provides mature tooling, frameworks, community, and productivity that are greater benefits day-to-day than the possibility of Internet scale performance and optimization when dealing in general business programming scenarios. Go is the better choice if you want to use communicating sequential processes (CSP) or to use a one thread per request model. Java has the better tooling (IDE support) and has a much larger community in industry. Java is the better choice if you want to have type safe generics.
