Memcached 1.6, a high throughput in memory cache ready to serve keys the instant it boots.
Overview
Memcached is a distributed in memory key value store used to cache database query results, session data, and computed fragments so applications respond faster and shed load from backend databases. It is a staple caching tier for high traffic web and API workloads.
Why the cloudimg image
cloudimg delivers Memcached preconfigured on a hardened, fully patched Ubuntu 24.04 base so the cache is listening and tuned as soon as the instance starts. The image is maintained with regular patching and backed by 24/7 support.
