Memcached
Memcached is a high-performance, distributed memory object caching system designed for speeding up dynamic web applications by alleviating database load. It works by storing data and objects in RAM to reduce the number of times an external data source must be read. Memcached is simple yet powerful, featuring a straightforward design that enables rapid deployment, ease of development, and solves many problems facing large data caches. It's particularly useful for database call, API call, or page rendering result caching.
