memcached - a distributed memory object caching system

What is Memcached? Free & open source, high-performance, distributed memory object caching system , generic in nature, but intended for use in speeding up dynamic web applications by alleviating database load. Memcached is an in-memory key-value store for small chunks of arbitrary data (strings, objects) from results of database calls, API calls, or page rendering.
Squid is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. It reduces bandwidth and improves response times by caching and reusing frequently-requested web pages. Squid has extensive access controls and makes a great server accelerator. It runs on most available operating systems, including Windows and is licensed under the GNU GPL.

squid : Optimising Web Delivery

HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable solution offering high availability , load balancing , and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications. It is particularly suited for web sites crawling under very high loads while needing persistence or Layer7 processing. Supporting tens of thousands of connections is clearly realistic with todays hardware. Its mode of operation makes its integration into existing architectures very easy and riskless, while still offering the possibility not to expose fragile web servers to the Net, such as below : http://haproxy.1wt.eu/

HAProxy - The Reliable, High Performance TCP/HTTP Load Balancer

http://www.lighttpd.net/ Security, speed, compliance, and flexibility -- all of these describe lighttpd ( pron. lighty ) which is rapidly redefining efficiency of a webserver; as it is designed and optimized for high performance environments. With a small memory footprint compared to other web-servers, effective management of the cpu-load, and advanced feature set (FastCGI, SCGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) lighttpd is the perfect solution for every server that is suffering load problems. And best of all it's Open Source licensed under the revised BSD license .

haXe - Welcome to haXe !

http://haxe.org/ haXe can be compiled to all popular programming platforms with its fast compiler – JavaScript, Flash, NekoVM, PHP, C++, C# and Java (soon) – which means your apps will support all popular mobile devices, such as iOS, Android, Windows Mobile, webOS and more. haXe is open source, which means it’s free , and has the right formula to become the next industry standard as it’s already garnering many adopters in the coding community whom we’d like to fondly call, the haXers! If you are familiar with Java, PHP, JavaScript or ActionScript, the haXe syntax should be very familiar, allowing you to get down to coding right away with a minimal learning curve. Unlike JavaScript which can take hours to debug, haXe has a very strict compile-time type checking feature that allows you to catch errors before testing your program in the browser, and automatically offers helpful instruction on how to debug the issue.
