It looks like they are moving away from Java. Can anyone from Netflix comment on why javascript was the language of choice for the migration?


So from a podcast I listened to from a few years ago of this same guy in software engineering daily, their base services were still in java, while the services that were closer to the user experience were being transitioned to nodejs. He even said that probably completely new back-end services would still be done in Java if they were not really tied to the UX. I don’t know if this is still true today though.
