Title: Memcached Authors: Venue: Wikipedia Year: unknown Canonical: wiki:memcached URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memcached Collector: wikipedia OA: true ABSTRACT In computing, Memcached is a general-purpose distributed memory-caching system. It is often used to speed up dynamic database-driven websites by caching data and objects in RAM to reduce the number of times an external data source must be read. Memcached is free and open-source software, licensed under the Revised BSD license. Memcached runs on Unix-like operating systems and on Microsoft Windows. It depends on the libevent library.
