Hey does anybody know technologies that vimeo uses? I know they use mysql for the db, not sure if they use memcache.
The site seems pretty smooth compared to youtube.
Thanks

You might want to try asking on Hacker News. They tend to know more about infrastructure issues.

Given the choice between asking us (who have probably never worked at vimeo) and vimeo itself (who would know what technologies they use), I would opt for vimeo ([email protected]).

From header inspections I think it certainly uses php. Most likely it does use memcache. The video content seems to be straming from a specialized server I don't know of (bit_asic/3.3/r2f1-bitcast-a ). Some responses come from Apache Covalent which aludes to java. Hosted on debian etch.
