- nbm 14y agoFacebook uses a combination of primarily PHP(1) (mostly front-end, rendering, some async jobs and scripts) and C++ (mostly back-end services, other bits of high-performance infrastructure, HipHop for PHP), with some Java (especially in the Hadoop, Hive, and similar areas), Python (mostly automation, scripts, infrastructure), and so forth. From what I understand, Yahoo! has a similar mix of technologies. In both cases, you really can't say "are PHP". (1) Modulo some in-house and open source extensions (like XHP) running on HipHop for PHP.
