Does Instagram infra use C++

Or is it Python all the way down #instagram #facebook #meta

It’s Python all the way down. They feel the versatility and performance of Python is enough to support their entire backend infrastructure, as they scale using a multi threading approach that allows for asynchronous execution. Jk, I’m not even a SWE and idk wtf I’m talking about

Really have to ask that question? No way you can build performance critical infra in Python.

I believe they use yaml for infra. It’s yaml all the way down
