Ask HN: What Hardware/Software Apple use in their own datacenters?

They do make great hardware/software for consumers but do they same HW/SW for their own datacenters?

Pretty much everything runs on Java which each team having a different stack.

Full WebObjects/Project Wonder is used for iTunes Store. Just the web part of WebObjects used for the Apple Store. JBoss for Apple ID/ADC. Cassandra and Teradata used extensively. SAP for billing. Hadoop stack for analytics. The architecture generally is SOA/Microservices. Hardware is typical - nothing unusual.

The interesting parts are really Siri which uses Mesos and Apple's recent acquisition of FoundationDB.

Sometimes the size and location of the down vote button on mobile is really annoying. I may have just up voted this stupid spam. Hopefully the adamvega account will get banned quickly.
