From what we can gather by common sense I can assume that both stake and bitkong has javascript on their front end, this is not a guarantee but it does seem like the regular old html/css/javascript combo should be enough for the front end, I have messaged to their support to ask what language they were coded but unfortunately I was not capable of getting any answers.

Stake customer support thought I was asking the "language" of the casino as in English and all that, bitkong didn't replied yet at all. I think the safest option to assume could be c# for now, at least for the gaming parts of course because that would be the easiest option yet again to build these games on C# but I am not entirely sure how the payment part of it is coded since it could be anything.

The thing is that C# is very versatile, and it's incredible, but the programming part is very extensive, and judging by the number of jobs that there are for programming casinos and that I've seen on the web many programmers ask for C# and Java, and that's not just because they are the most common languages, but partly because they are easier for a programmer, there is much more that can be programmed, but I think that C# and Java are the most standard, and I agree To this, any programmer will be able to quickly understand what another did in case he no longer works with the company in question, and since Java also has so many scripts, it is also adaptable. In fact, I have looked for some jobs as a programmer engineer and what they ask for the most, at least in Spain, is that they can do it in C or Java.

Rather than asking customer support, it is probably better to ask directly in their BitcoinTalk thread and mention about this thread over there.

I want everyone's participation to make this thread a hub of technical know-how for gambling portals.

https://wajur.com uses nginx in front of Java/JSP.

Ironically, the primary developer makes extensive use of Node.js at his or her "day job", but falls back to more traditional technologies when the stakes are higher.

Agree with the sentiment that GO will become more popular for the back end.

Wish someone would start a thread about the best places to host...
Never heard of this game. Could u please point to the official thread of wajur?

Ok we speaking about what languages they use and the data bases but what about the security they using ?
Also what exactly is a backend and how does it work and what is it's function. I see there a few people that seem to know what is going on and what they are talking about so perhaps someone could answer me.

How about what languages are used for large bitcoin exchanges? bitcoin to altcoin exchanges? bitcoin shopping carts?

For server size and capacity, just think about ... microsoft exchange email hosting. App hosting. Dedicated hosts can usually handle 300 transactions (games, bets, etc) per second. Then even bigger sites have redundancy so there are two or three or more of every server. Database availability groups. Backup servers. "Replica" ... RAID, for when hard drives or SSDs fail.

All usually taken care of by the hosting provider. For a price.

Just out of curiosity, why would you want to know what languages/technologies are used for gambling sites?

I dont think there are so many websites where you can have lots of language becuase most of the time it is only in english because everyone can speak english unless the france people off course.

In PHP.

Server: Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu)
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.5.9-1ubuntu4.14


(@fastdice: can't hurt to hide those headers btw, easy apache+php setting.)

Both set a PHPSESSID cookie, so both in PHP.
OP updated with these data. If you know the blanks fields, please let me know. I'll update accordingly. I'd also request site owners to participate in this thread for data accuracy.


I'm so glad you made this thread and kept it updated i have wanted to know this for a really long time. There is one more thing i wonder about and that is how powerful their servers are.
Nice to know that it helped. I guess, server specs will highly vary depending on site load.

Servers for the big sites are usually on dedicated machines either rented or co-located at a datacenter.

Servers for really big gambling sites (the ones that don't accept bitcoin; the ones that have government licenses to operate) could be clustered or replicated or has some form of failover / high-availability / redundancy / whatever.

Small gambling sites can be run from a small VPS.

Small (or big) gambling sites using bitcoind with pruning also require less disk space than before. 70 GB for old versions versus 2 GB for the latest.

The codes differ in exactly how the games are determined, like what hash they use or what provably fair method they use, and if they are running dice games or lotto games or card games.

Dice games need a "real" server. Lotto games or any game that is "slow" could theoretically run on a home laptop (only the front facing website is on a server) or a really cheap VPS.
I think big sites operate on clouds like AWS or Heroku. Small ones are on Digital Ocean or Shared Hosting.
