Obamacare backend code?

• jpinkerton88 13y ago
  it would be in java...
  • ceejayoz 13y ago
    Why not? Twitter, Facebook, Google, and Amazon all use a lot of Java. It's come a long way since when Microsoft shipped rollover buttons via Java applets in MS FrontPage.

      i didn't say it shouldn't be

    Damn! It figures boring insurance code would be written in rock solid tried and true technology that hipster kids dislike!

      "rock solid tried and true technology" Thanks. I needed a good laugh for the day.

      C# has all of those listed features, yet is still usually considered at least okay by hipsters. :)

  cms.gov is medicare back-end, not sure if this is an extension of that or part of the original
  • dangrossman 13y ago
    The Healthcare.gov Github repo does live under the CMS.gov account (https://github.com/CMSgov/healthcare.gov https://github.com/CMSgov/healthcare.gov). (Edit: No, this isn't the marketplace code, but the fact that they share a Github account is some evidence the marketplace could be reusing/extending CMS.gov code).

      That's only the static information and FAQ site, not the marketplace. From the readme: >This project does not include any source code for the Federal Health Insurance Marketplace (the online systems located under www.healthcare.gov/marketplace.

    Post was by "Sirini", could that be short for "Shankar Srinivasan, COO and Co-Founder"[1] [1] http://www.getinsured.com/answers/our-team/ http://www.getinsured.com/answers/our-team/ Edit: Nope, probably their product manager: http://www.linkedin.com/in/srinidhanam http://www.linkedin.com/in/srinidhanam

    Putting it together with dangrossman's link to https://github.com/CMSgov/healthcare.gov https://github.com/CMSgov/healthcare.gov, could be a private site written using some gov.* code from GitHub.

  This one looks more related to www.getinsured.com than the obamacare. I accuse you of the Title is misleading and to get more karma :).
