I like the courage trying to manage this. Two thumbs up.
To be honest, I am skeptical, that a newcomer startup can do the heavy lifting of supporting such a big stack. Each of these has a lot of specialities that need to be known and to fight.
Background: Our stack uses appjet, nginx, varnish and couchdb. Each of these has different challenges. Think of optimization, scaling, resource limiting, leveling, monitoring, statistics and enforcing governor limits/notifying customers. We needed over a year to establish this. I don't want to sound negative, just think about all this, what we needed learn.

How many web businesses had to re-invent the wheel to get to the same result? Yes, it's hard work for us. But 90% of the work is the same across all deployments. We take advantage of that fact to offer massive savings in engineering and sysadmin time.
