@raj_chandra3 @TwitterEng @java@OpenJDK To be clear, our bet is on the JVM, not exactly on the Java language. That said, the Java language is evolving rapidly.
@raj_chandra3 @TwitterEng @java@OpenJDK Our services are written predominantly in Scala, but we have a lot of infrastructure that is still written in Java.
@raj_chandra3 @TwitterEng @java@OpenJDK Ultimately, w/ hyper-scale applications like @twitter, the language/runtime choice matters less than the investment in the language/runtime.
