Varnish

Varnish Cache is a web accelerator also known as a caching HTTP reverse proxy. You can install it in front of any web server that speaks the HTTP protocol and configure it to cache the contents. Varnish Cache is really, really fast and will improve your site's loading speed. One of the essential features of Varnish Cache is the flexibility of its configuration language, VCL, which enables you to determine how incoming requests should be handled.

Memcached

Memcached is a general-purpose memory object caching system for increasing the load speed of dynamic database-powered websites. It is used to lower the number of times an external data source (such as a DB or API) is read by caching data and objects in RAM. The Memcached distributed memory object caching system uses a two-tier architecture. The Memcached distributed memory object caching system is employed by some of the most traffic-hungry sites on the web and is supported by popular web applications like Joomla and WordPress.

Node.js

Node.js is a software platform for writing scalable Internet applications. Written in JavaScript, Node.js uses an event-based, non-blocking input/output model that makes it lightweight and effective, perfect for high-performance data-heavy applications. Node.js uses Google's V8 JavaScript engine, libUV, and several in-built libraries.

InnoDB

InnoDB is the default storage engine for the MySQL open-source DBMS. A storage engine is the underlying software component that a database management system uses to create, retrieve, modify and delete data from a database. The latest release of InnoDB offers substantial improvements in efficiency, stability and functionality. InnoDB offers the standard ACID transaction properties, along with foreign key support. InnoDB is included as standard in most binary distributions from MySQL AB.
