Our Tech Stack

Toast’s commercial products run on a stack that ranges from guest and restaurant-facing Android tablets to backend services in Java to internal, guest-facing and restaurant-facing web apps. 

The Infrastructure Engineering group manages Toast's infrastructure via the AWS API, using configuration management tools like Terraform, Ansible, and internally developed clients using Python and Go. We rely heavily on Datadog and Splunk for monitoring and observability, and on FireHydrant for alerting and incident response.

Infrastructure Engineering provides the products and services to support, deploy, and monitor our product suite, which uses a microservice architecture written using Java and Kotlin and DropWizard. AWS products are also in heavy usage, ranging from S3 to RDS, DynamoDB, ECS, Lambda, and many others. We have our own platform for user management, service discovery/elevations, and load balancing. We use Apache Spark for large scale data workloads including query and batch processing. The main Toast POS application is an Android application written in Java and Kotlin. For data synchronization between tablets and our cloud platform we operate RabbitMQ and Apache Pulsar clusters as well as direct tablet communication to the applications' RESTful and GraphQL APIs.
