He has a valid point. Most of the enterprise applications uses Oracle DB. I for one is looking for an oracle driver similar to what JDBC does (a simple to use, no separate installation needed). All of Go oracle drivers available uses Oracle Instant Client. I am currently in a hunt to migrate all our Java-based projects to different language. Right now, my options are .Net Core 2 and Go. I am more lean to Go in terms of memory footprints, but I find it difficult to find the necessary packages/libraries to connect to Oracle database.
If Google is very serious to attract enterprises to migrate their projects to Go, then I think they should fill those void. Don't expect that enterprises will migrate their DBs to PostgreSql or MySQL. That will be a big NO for migration. just my 2 cents. ;) On Saturday, January 15, 2011 at 2:27:49 AM UTC+9, Jim Teeuwen wrote: > > You could also just write your own ;) > > Most of the those database wrappers are all community projects.
