JGroups impersonating memcached

September 4th, 2008

I woke up and noticed that a memcached mode was announced by Bela Ban, the fantastically Swiss man who jogs waaay too much.

There’s a lot of things in this world that can take advantage of memcached.  Personally, I find this quite interesting, considering that memcached tends to be the cache-of-choice for lots of non-Java languages.  For instance, fragment caching and model caching in Rails supports talking to memcached.

Or now, JGroups.

    Great to see memcached support for JGroups!

    While reading through
    http://www.jgroups.org/javagroupsnew/docs/memcached/memcached.html
    I found links to some clients.

    The libmemcached based clients work even faster and with more features:
    http://tangent.org/552/libmemcached.html
    http://code.google.com/p/python-libmemcached/
    http://code.google.com/p/perl-libmemcached/
