- shanemhansen 15y agoGranted I'm speaking from second hand experience, but for the last couple years I worked closely with some former and current amazonians who worked on their frontend and order workflow team. I do know for a fact that much of their frontend is/was in perl, and that oracle databases have their place. But I guess that wasn't what they started with.
