The languages Mike suggests are spot on when it comes to our ONE offers as well as what are popular in the industry. Additionally, REST APIs are also very popular. With REST, you can write in any language you want. While Java, Python and Ruby dominate, You could use PHP and Perl to make REST calls. It really depends on your use cases and in some ways the part of the network as to what language choices make the most sense.
