1,000,000 daily users with no cache
I'm amazed that some people still do services without using memcached or similar. It's not very difficult, and brings enormous benefits.
So, why not?

They used Redis. Which I would say is pretty similar to memcached.

I thought so too, but that means the slide title is wrong, they're not doing that much traffic without a cache.

They're using Redis as a primary store rather than a cache.

Redis is like memcached on steroids.
