The scope of IT at a JMPC or a BAML is massive, and has grown both through acquisition and organically over decades. Virtually any technology you can think of is most likely being used or (at least being supported) by some unit at the bank. In a recent year JPMC's IT spend was $12 billion. In my personal experience (at JPMC) I knew groups who were using Clojure and Scala (while my manager assured me such technology was not authorized at the bank.) I knew of groups on AWS, on e on Azure and some using an internal Cloud Foundry implementation. (My group was running bond monte carlo's in an abortion of an IBM compute grid system straight out of 1992.) I personally knew of Mongo, Cassandra, Oracle, Sybase, SQL Server and KDB installations. Kapital - possibly the most famous commercial use of Smalltalk originated at JPM. The point is - it's difficult to make generalizations about orgs that big. |
