Filtrie Team members are convicted enthusiasts of open source technology and everything used to build and run our services are free non-proprietary software. So we would like to share what we are using as a way of thanking those giants who build these softwares and hopefully inspire other developers to adopt them.
Operacional System: Our servers run on a CentOs linux distro;
Web Servers: We use Apache 2 to serve dinamic content and Nginx to proxy, load-balance and serve static/cached content.
Programming Languages: PHP 5.3 does all the magic in the server-side, and Javascript (with usage of the amazing Jquery 1.4 framework) handle the client-side and is also used to develop the browser extensions.
Distributed Cache: Memcached memory cache helps to handle database load and even completely takes care of some temporary disposable data.
IDE: Aptana Studio
