Amazon uses Mason with FastCGI. They have never used mod_perl. They also use nearly everything (C++, Java, etc.) somewhere in their system. The Perl stuff is just used on the front-end. They have a quirky setup. For one thing, they use Safe, which makes it hard to use all the normal CPAN modules. I'd be surprised if they moved off Perl though. It would be a major investment for them to rewrite. - Perrin
