Platform software

Content:

Everybody know that platform software even today is all C/C++. Right? Or maybe not!

I saw a list on LinkedIn with platform software for modern cloud container micro-service architecture. And I tried counting:

Mulesoft – Java
Consul – Go
Eureka – Java
ZooKeeper – Java
Kong – Lua
Ocelot – C#
Nginx – C
Traefik – Go
Seesaw – Go
Redis – C
Hazelcast – Java
Memcache – C
PostgreSQL - C
Oracle - C
MySQL – C++
DynamoDB - Java
MongoDB – C++
Cassandrea – Java
HBase – Java
Zipkin – Java
Swarm – Go
Kubernetes – Go
TerraForm – Go
Kibana – TypeScript
Prometheus – Go
Grafana – TypeScript + Go
Kafka – Java
RabbitMQ – Erlang
Docker – Go
Podman - Go
LXC - C

Go - 9.5
C/C++ - 8
Java - 8
TypeScript - 1.5
C# - 1
Erlang - 1
Lua - 1

The list is not authoritative in any way, but I think that no matter how one picked the list, then it will not be all C/C++ - it will be C/C++, Go and Java sharing top 3.
