I could not find any evidence of this slogan or stated design scope limitation. On the Go web site there wasn't anything in that direction, for example. Closest I found by web searches was references to this 2014 post from an analyst company: https://redmonk.com/dberkholz/2014/03/18/go-the-emerging-language-of-cloud-infrastructure/ https://redmonk.com/dberkholz/2014/03/18/go-the-emerging-lan... - in there it's opined that Go has a strong position in cloud infrastructure (but doesn't imply that it's designed or suitable only for that).
