In many environments MySQL is not the only technology used to store in-process data.
Quite frequently, especially with large-scale or complicated applications, we use MySQL alongside other technologies for certain tasks of reporting, caching as well as main data-store for portions of application.
What technologies for data storage and processing do you use alongside MySQL in your environment? Please feel free to elaborate in the comments about your use case and experiences!

I use Cassandra and Tarantool. And planning to use also Sphinx.
