Generally, I see Go replacing a lot of projects that would have previously been written in Java (namely network services/backends). Compiler is a bit of an exception, for sure.

Yes… there’s a lot of overlapping territory, for sure. Just like how Java relaces a lot of projects that would have previously been written in C++ or C.

That's assuming it's cheaper and works, which in my experience is asking a LOT of the run of the mill Java dev.
