At Tuenti, memcached is one of the things we can’t live without. We use it massively in order to serve the huge amount of traffic that leaves our servers. It is a great piece of software, but it has given us some headaches too.
This is how we solved one of them.
César Ortiz Architecture Engineer
Tuenti is an example of one of the many sites that is currently using memcache to improve performance. It's important to keep in mind that once you start using it your application performance will heavily depend on it. Consequently, if for any reason the memcache connectivity is lost, the user experience will not work as well as intended because it uses memcache as a key element that just failed.
