Go Concurrency Explored

Go Concurrency Explored

We will explore concurrency in Go with live coding and code walkthrough of more advanced samples. We will also look at how Go vastly simplifies concurrency compared to Java.

Presenter: Raj Auradkar, Senior Engineer at Ameriprise Financial. Past and current experience of building large, concurrent, distributed applications is prompting my interest in looking at Go.
