Go has a more vibrant community, it would be indeed a great strategic decision.
Consul is also a much thought out project.
So i am loving what Kaushal has proposed - great stuff. One can
easily write C bindings
to Go! so it isn't a tight requirement.
Gluster management daemon should be really thin while it can really
serve simple requests
- Also Gluster management becomes an API but abstracted
- This API allows for making Gluster management daemon extensible in
various languages
too - for example writing a Javascript UI which provides a
tighter coupling with Gluster management
API.
Indeed a great step in this direction +1
