What is the best programming language to learn for backend developers?

Go provides a very simple mental modal to solve a relatively complex computer programming problem, that is concurrency. Goroutines make asynchronous, non-blocking and highly concurrent code much easier to write and read. Unlike in many other languages running on top of an event loop, like JavaScript for ex...

Support multiple cores naturally. Highlight feature of goroutine(corroutine), channel. Wonderful golang ecosystem.

As Backend is growing more and more towards containerised micro-services, Golang definitely has got a bright future ahead of it. Having a clean, simple language with the X-platform portability of "ye olde C", and the design team that is focussing the development with networking in mind just makes s...

Java is the future.
