Go is slowly becoming the de-facto lingua franca of DevOps - to the point of replacing shell scripting (see Cloudflare Blog/Using Go as a scripting language in Linux). The next great iteration would be a compile once run anywhere type of such scripting (as possible as it can be with external packaging involved). There's already a PoC libc and executable format that can run anywhere (see Cosmopolitan libc and APE). The author of Cosmpolitan and APE has indicated a willingness to collaborate and support Go running on Cosmopolitan and producing APE binaries.
