That's right.
As opposed to stock exchange software, which runs on complex micro-services cloud k8s thing-as-a-thing virtualized rotozooming engines.
Wait, no, it's literally just good-old n-tier architecture with one big server process and some database backend.
Pet food delivery startups use k8s to manage their MEAN stack. Meanwhile grown-ups still have "monoliths" connected to something like Oracle, DB2 or MS SQL server, because that's obviously the most reliable setup.
The cloud/k8s stuff is an ad-hoc wannabe mainframe built on shaky foundations.

More often than not they just crystalized their 90s knowledge and just pretended there aren't better tools for the job because it would take some work to adopt them and no one notices it in their work anyway. The "Oracle" keyword is a telltale sign.
