Memcached is a high performance distributed memory caching system used to speed up applications by caching data and objects in memory. This image runs it with SASL PLAIN authentication compiled in and required.
Memcached is preinstalled and hardened, listening on its standard port and started on boot, with authentication required rather than open by default. A fresh SASL password for the cloudimg user is generated on first boot into a root only file, and cloudimg provides 24/7 support covering sizing, client integration and upgrades.
