Is imgur using a database to store their images?
I'm sure this post will be shutdown by the hive. Just post the answer if you know it.
Just wondering if imgur.com is using a database or a filesystem to store all their images.
I did some research http://imgur.com/blog/2013/06/04/tech-tuesday-our-technology-stack/ and didn't really get an answer.

They use S3 (AWS) to store the image data; and MySQL to host the names/link associations.
