  Well, when we say GitHub, we are talking about thousands of services. I don’t think we can pinpoint the overall operational failures to programming language choice. In my experience, these kind of issues are mostly caused by poor organizational architecture + poor project management. In GitHub’s case, I’m also confident to say the choice of infrastructure plays a much bigger role than Ruby.
