We wrote our own image processing, resizing, and snapshotting service in Go to allow our clients to send photos and GIFs to each other. Files are stored in S3, resized on the fly using OpenCV, and then cached in GroupCache before being served to clients.
Go allows it all to be quite fast and efficient, and entirely non-blocking on uploads! Go
