Any Coinbase employees here? Was wondering what the tech stack is, saw a job description mentioning breaking a Rails monolith into micro services - does that mean Coinbase switches to a different stack?
- jakecraige 6y agoThe main app powering coinbase.com, the “monorail”, is a Rails app backed by MongoDB. It’s typically what’s being referred to when breaking out microservices. Historically most other services were Rails/Sinatra with Postgres. These days there’s a lot more Golang being used for new services. There’s also some services that are serverless, using Lambda and DynamoDB but these are a minority.
- joelbluminator 6y agoThanks. But is Ruby considered something deprecated? I'm mainly a Ruby guy and want to keep it that way is why I'm asking.
