    They use HTML/CSS & Javascript on the front end, most the raw coding is mostly Python and Java, the OS is a heavily modified Linux and the database is custom. The DB is scattered over a replicating cluster, it works on DocID's, Chunks and MapReduce.

    They also use Squid/Loadbalancers and cache servers.

    That's for the search, but their Ad servers, Maps etc are slightly different depending what service it's running.

    I used to see an interview between google staff and journalist .
    ( Unfortunately I can't find out the URL. )
    They said they are using python, googleserver and sometimes php, mysql, linux and other open source code.
    Python is used most often .
