"We’ve been using MySQL and Memcached from day one, because it’s always good when you have 50 different problems to tackle to use tools that you know (read this article by @mcuban if you’re about to take the red pill). -- However, given our growth, we reached a step where the complexity of scaling horizontally involves sharding and other stuff that we weren’t convinced MySQL would do well (at least, because we need to have Memcached in front too). Rather than heading too far into bending MySQL, we thought we should give a chance to Redis. And here the story."
