Redis Landing Page

Redis

Redis is an open source in-memory data structure project implementing a distributed, in-memory key-value database with optional durability.
Pricing:
- Open Source
Redis is a fast, in-memory, key-value store, that uses the disk for persistence. It complements nicely a database such as PostgreSQL. There are a lot of interesting things that you can do with it. For example, it's often used for session management or caching by web apps, but it has many other uses.

Python

Python is a clear and powerful object-oriented programming language, comparable to Perl, Ruby, Scheme, or Java.
Pricing:
- Open Source
MacOS, like Linux, ships with Python already installed. But you don't want to mess with the system Python (some system tools rely on it, etc.), so we'll install our own version using pyenv. This will also allow us to manage multiple versions of Python (ex: 2.7 and 3) should we need to.

Node.js Landing Page

Node.js

Node.js is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications

The star (*) should indicate we are still using the system version, which is the default. I recommend leaving it as the default as some Node.js packages will use it in their installation process.
