With RoR it's pretty much in the description. Monolithic web apps with relatively standard and simple domain logic (i.e. CRUD). Lots of presentation code (HTML templates, handling of static assets and what not).

Go is for writing small, focused, paralellizable and likely distributed services. If I wanted to crunch data, I'd try Go.

I'd expect, say, a RoR app to connect to a Go service for some of its heavier domain logic. I'd neither write a RoR-type app in Go, nor a Go-type service in RoR.
