10. HTML5:
The fifth edition of the Markup language; HTML, originally introduced by Opera Software, is capable of accomplishing tasks that are significantly different from its predecessors HTML4.0 and HTML4.1.
HTML5 brings with itself the features of Local Storage, canvas, video, that let you do much more than dragging images and text into one rectangle box. The new WebSockets spec brings a new way to conduct full-duplex communication that will bring a drastic shift for web developers from Flash to HTML5.
‘An open source database that completely embraces the web’, that’s Apache Couch DB or simply Couch DB. Couch DB is a NoSQL database and it uses JSON documents to store data. Created in 2005 under former IBM Lotus notes developer Damien Katz, Couch DB was initially used as storage system for large scale databases until it became an Apache project in 2008. Still number of companies like the BBC and Credit Suisse uses Couch DB’s dynamic content platforms to store configuration details for its marketing data framework. CouchDB is available under the Apache License 2.0.
