Memcached is a distributed cache system which provides clients for different languages implementing a relatively simple "get and set" protocol. The implementation of the "cache logic", in terms of the decision of when go to the cache or to the database and when to invalidate/update the cache is left for the client consumer to implement. Memcached is a service, it is written on C and runs as a standalone service. EhCache is a Java solution that allows for caching in memory java objects. It is based in java and runs in the context of the virtual machine. > and how to implement it on linux like Ubuntu ? You can install Memcache using aptitude in Ubuntu. If you are a java developer you have a couple of client implementations with different features, I would start by looking at SpyMemcached as a java client. > > Thx before That;s my humble opinion. Hope it helps. Best regards, Gonzalo
