Read How Our Contributions Reduced The Go Execution Tracer Overhead
Go is an open source programming language that makes it simple to build secure, scalable systems. Many of the Datadog backend services at Datadog are written in Go. As part of our library and backend services work, we sometimes find areas of the language that can be improved, bugs, or performance issues that require low level changes in the language. Our engineers contribute regularly to Go with those improvements.
