I've been starting up using Go as "fast Python" for web services / REST APIs. The patterns encouraged by Go development are actually how I preferred to write Python in the first place, which is to say
1. largely avoiding huge tightly-coupled frameworks like Django
2. writing a little more boilerplate with the payoff of making code a lot clearer to reason about without having to step through tons of layers of overly-dynamic libraries
I think Go will really start to eat up the backend web services space in the coming years.
