That's a good idea. At the very least add a note about it in the mean time maybe. BTW as a caching-only system redis can scale exactly like memcache if your cli

That's a good idea. At the very least add a note about it in the mean time maybe. BTW as a caching-only system redis can scale exactly like memcache if your client supports it. I did this in one project and it worked great. EDIT: Also, it might be too niche, but you can also have a look at redis+dynomite, which makes redis behave like a distributed database. https://github.com/Netflix/dynomite https://github.com/Netflix/dynomite
