An oral history of Bank Python
Huh. A lot of Bank Python sounds eerily similar to Zope related tech:<p>'Barbara' (which I suspect is JP Morgan's Hydra) sounds like a brutalist version of the ZODB created with scalability in mind.<p>The hierarchical overlays sound like Zope's Acquisition and Containment.<p>Even storing (and running) code in the object database has it's equivalent in Zope's Python Script Objects.
