Go is reasonably big on the open source side of the cloud space.

  Not sure what you mean by "open source side" of the cloud space. PostgreSQL is still C, and Mongo is still C++ + Node.js.

    The two don't belong to "cloud infrastructure".

      The conversation is about "cloud space". Also, by restricting to open source you dropped 2 biggest and successful players.

    Sure, but Go has enabled a lot of great software in a very short amount of time. If you are in the cloud business, you'd better take a serious look at Go if you don't want to be out competed. It hits a sweet spot between performance and ease of use - feels almost like Python, performs almost like C++.
