What technologies does Amazon.com use?

What programming language and database technologies does Amazon.com use and do other large e-commerce sites follow a similiar approach?

You could ask Amazon, but I doubt they will tell you much.  Most of the software is proprietary and developed in house.  It would be a safe bet that just about any development technology in use has some usage at amazon. asking something like this like asking what technologies the CIA uses.  These are trade secrets, and for security reasons you would not let the world know what you doing.

Interestingly Oracle is a repeated keyword in the jobs section.
