About Memcached
Memcached was created in 2003 by Brad Fitzpatrick for the website LiveJournal. It was developed to improve the performance of dynamic, database-driven websites by caching data and reducing database load.
Strengths of Memcached include high performance, simplicity, and scalability. Weaknesses involve lack of persistence, limited data types, and no built-in security features. Competitors include Redis, Apache Ignite, and Couchbase.
