What is the tech stack of houzz.com and Etsy?
We want to build a similar application with millions of images and users, high traffic.... basically we want the base on LAMP(php) and what else we can add? Of course hosting will be EC2, S3 and Cloudfront but what else we can add to it? how can we add redis, solr, node.js, memcache to LAMP? Should we start with MySQL with Redis, Cassandra, Solr...etc... advise on the best tech stack as i said the application is going to be massive....
