The big 5 tech companies are Apple, Microsoft, Google, Facebook, and Amazon.

Neither Apple nor Microsoft use Java.

Facebook uses PHP, Google uses a lot of languages but mostly C++ for Search. Amazon does seem to use a lot of Java.

They run portions on Azure. That doesn't mean they are using .Net. Azure supports more than .Net.
