aiocache is an asyncio cache library for Python supporting multiple backends including memory, Redis, and Memcached. It provides a uniform minimal interface (get, set, multi_get, delete, etc.) plus a decorator for caching async function results.

Use cases

  • cache async function results in python with a decorator
  • add redis caching to an asyncio web app
  • swap cache backends between memory, redis, and memcached
  • store python objects in redis with pickle or msgpack serializers
  • implement ttl-based caching for expensive async calls
  • share cached data across processes via memcached

When to choose

  • you need caching in asyncio-based python applications
  • you want a single API across multiple cache backends
  • you want decorator-based memoization of async functions

When to avoid

  • your code is synchronous and not asyncio-based
  • you need advanced cache features like eviction policies or distributed locking
  • you use a framework with its own built-in cache abstraction
