We got around this issue by grouping memcache servers into logical clusters 
within our client (2 or 3). 
 

While performing a cache "put", we put into all the clusters (which will 
put it in just one of the node within the cluster). 

However while performing a "get", we perform a get from subsequent cluster, 
only if the previous one fails. 

 

With this setup, a memcache server does not act as a single point of 
failure and if a random memcache server does go down, we can always find 
the cache from another logical cluster

 

Probably not the best approach to solve this, but if there is any other 
better approach, please let me know.
