Guest Posted: Sat Mar 06, 2004 9:10 am    Post subject: OT: Amazon.com website? Just out of curiosity, does anyone know if JSPs and other Java-based technology is used for Amazon's website? I beleive eBay opted for Microsoft ASP and similar technology, but was always curious about Amazon ... I especially like their personalization-techniques adopted at the portal, but was wondering if Java could give the performance that is required for a site like this. Any pointers or opinions would be appreciated. Thanks! Back to top Christophe Vanfleteren Guest Posted: Sat Mar 06, 2004 9:55 am    Post subject: Re: OT: Amazon.com website?

Ebay is running on a J2EE backend now: http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.jsp?thread_id=20155 http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.jsp?thread_id=21809 Amazon seems to use some Apache module.

I don't know whether this is still correct, but at least once in a time it's been using a perl-based templating system: http://www.masonhq.com/?AmazonDotCom -- Wolf a.k.a.
