Error handling in Go differs significantly from languages like Java, Python, JavaScript, or Ruby, as it does not automatically generate stack traces when exceptions occur. Instead, Go treats errors as explicit return values, enabling developers to handle them through idiomatic patterns. Over time, Go's error handling capabilities have evolved to include advanced features such as error wrapping, custom error types, and functions like errors.Is, errors.As, and errors.Join, which facilitate error inspection and classification. Despite the lack of built-in error tracing, tools like Datadog's Error Tracking and Orchestrion provide developers with the ability to trace errors effectively by integrating tracing hooks at compile time, allowing for comprehensive visibility into where and how errors occur in Go applications. These capabilities enable efficient debugging and help maintain production-ready, reliable services by clustering related errors, filtering noise, and providing detailed context for each error.
