Hi Brian, Yes have had a good read and still feel a little lost and stupid. What triggers each node to have the cache populated ? How does the data move between each node ?
Or, is what I am requiring the repcached mod to replicate the data ? Again, sorry for silly questions just cannot get my head around it at the moment; sorry! -- Thanks, Organic Spider | Weaving Open Source Technology ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Moon" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: "Organic Spider" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, 21 July, 2011 9:43:22 PM Subject: Re: Understanding MemCached Required reading: http://code.google.com/p/memcached/wiki/TutorialCachingStory Brian. http://brian.moonspot.net On 7/21/11 1:26 PM, Organic Spider wrote: > Hello all, > > Forgive my ignorance as I am trying to get my head around memcached and how > it could help in a idea I have.
