But uptick is not significant enough to say that they have enough momentum. Most companies like amazon write services in lots of different languages. Just using a language is not enough proof, do you have examples of major services written in functional languages at these enterprise companies?

Agreed there need to be "more" wins, but the amazon service seems like a pretty big one.
