Out of curiosity, anyone knows what does Ebay run on and how many servers ?

The front-end page says "Java Technology, powered by Sun" in top-right
corner. When you click, it reads: "eBay is Java™ Powered running on
powerful Sun Fire UltraSPARC® and AMD Opteron™ servers ..."

My browser gets the following headers, they seem to have mix of
technologies:


www.ebay.com
Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
Server: WebSphere Application Server/4.0

include.ebaystatic.com
Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0

pics.ebaystatic.com
??? (no server signature)

srx.main.ebayrtm.com
Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
Cneonction: close (hmm, interesting)
Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1

us.ebayobjects.com
Server: DCLK-AdSvr

banners.ebaystatic.com
Server: Microsoft-IIS/6.0

my.ebay.com
Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0
Server: WebSphere Application Server/4.0
