- nnk 14y ago> Just what App Engine already offers No, it doesn't. "The Memcache Python API High performance scalable web applications often use a distributed in-memory data cache in front of or in place of robust persistent storage for some tasks" MySQL memcached is not a cache, it's a persistent storage with memcached API. And it's fast.
- swah 14y agoIsn't this MySQL memcached thing just a memcached in front of MySQL where the 'key' is the expanded SELECT statement?
- nnk 14y agoWhat you've described it's MySQL query cache. MySQL memcached is a memcached deamon that uses InnoDB storage instead of in-memory storage. The caching is done by InnoDB itself. (and actually it's possible to enable the optional in-memory storage too) http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/innodb-memcached.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/innodb-memcached.html
