Hey CData Community!

If you’re a fan of Go (Golang) and you’ve been wishing your apps could tap into real-time data without building complex connectors or wrestling with custom drivers, your wish just came true.

We’ve just released a guide on how to use Go’s net/http and encoding/json packages to connect to a data source table exposed via&nbsp;CData API Server - but that’s just the beginning. This pattern works for any of the 300+ sources we support.
