A quick scan through Netlfix’s Github repository will inform you that Netflix has built their core cloud platform on Java. Our who cloud deployment platform is built on and for JVM applications, and it has served us well for years. But as Netflix evolves and grows, platforms like Node.js and Python have grown not only numbers, but are also being used in increasingly important systems. We need to start thinking about building tools to support a polyglot world at Netflix. In this talk, Mike McGarr (Manager, Netflix Developer Productivity) will talk about the various tools and approaches we are employing to provide first class support for a variety of languages and platforms at Netflix. Mike will share some of the challenges of supporting a polyglot codebase as well as lessons learned for enterprises embarking this journey.
