  So what is a good "SQL RAM CLUSTER" implementation I can try out?

  Not really, cache takes large chunk of space on the chip die size and also is power hungry, it's simply not scalable when you can have GB/TB memories that is slightly slower but totally expandable, cache is unable to cope with the increasingly large data set and will not be the solution for sql or nosql, memory with SSD is.
