- 11. Technology stack Git Repository RDBMS (H2 / MySQL / PostgreSQL) JGit Slick (blocking-slick) Apache MINA SSHD Jetty GitServlet (JGit) Scalatra / Twirl Git Client Web Browser SSH HTTP
- 12. Core technologies are Java ● Jetty ○ Embedded to make an executable war file ● H2 ○ Embedded as the default database ● JGit ○ Used for Git operations ● Apache MINA SSHD ○ Embedded to provide SSH git access
- 13. Why GitBucket use Scalatra? ● Scalatra is based on traditional Servlet ○ Not so high performance ○ Not super scalable ● Why not use Play? or Finagle? ○ Because to use JGitServlet (HTTP git server) ○ Scalatra can integrate existing Servlet based resources naturally

- 15. Key is interoperability with Scala and Java ● Getting benefits from fundamental Java libraries or middlewares ● Servlet based frameworks (e.g. Scalatra) makes possible to use existing Servlet based resources with Scala
