Hello all, A question about clustering memcached. I currently have a website with two front ends. Each front end runs a single instance of memcached. And both servers connect to the same database server. They run wordpress and via an object-cache plugin, I believe it checks both instances of memcached on both front ends for cached objects. It's given an array of memcached server:ports.
My questions is if there is any way to have both instances of memcached know of each other so that the code can only have to connect to its local memcached instance? As opposed to having to make a connection to the other server's memcached instance? I'm think about whether it effects performance when having to connect to another server. Otherwsie, what's the best way to have this set up? Assuming 2 (or more) frontends each running an instance of memcached? And wanting to keep the two front ends in sync with each other. Thanks! Dan
