What is a Go client?

Go client refers to a code or application that can access the programming language that was initially built for programs connected to networking and infrastructure. It was initially aimed at replacing Java and C++ programming languages, but is now used for various applications. It is popular for cloud-based or server-side apps and is favored by DevOps and site reliability automation.

Go is considered easy to learn and understand and has an active open-source community that develops libraries and lends support to other users.

Go is also a high performing programming language that can handle large-scale automation.

Infrastructure tools like Kubernetes, Docker and Prometheus are written in Go. In addition, cloud platforms provide ample support to those using Go.
