Grafana Releases New AI SDK for Go with Streaming and Tool-Calling
Go LLM SDK for streaming, tool-calling AI backends (plus frontend React lib)
We are excited to introduce the Grafana AI SDK for Go, a powerful library designed to streamline the development of streaming and tool-calling AI backends. This SDK ensures seamless integration with the @ai-sdk/react frontend library, allowing developers to build robust, real-time AI applications with ease. By unifying backend logic with frontend capabilities, we aim to simplify the complex workflow of modern AI development.
Grafana AI SDK for Go — streaming, tool-calling AI backends that speak fluent @ai-sdk/react.

This is a backend written in go that's wire-protocol compatible with the (catchy named) Vercel AI UI SDK; which is an SDK for helping to build AI chat apps. The original Vercel AI SDK backend is in typescript.
I think they really missed the opportunity to add in resumable streaming after a dropped SSE connection, or multi-device support. Because these SDKs are easy to drop-in to your applications, but hard once you actually try and build resilient systems on top of them. Systems that can heal from dropped connections, or support multiple users or multiple devices.

I don’t understand - Why did they write this? It seems to add nothing to the domain?

This looks great! Wonder how it compares to https://github.com/genkit-ai/genkit since they also offer similar SDKs and support for different model providers.
