A Memcached client library for the Go programming language. It provides a simple API for getting and setting items across a pool of Memcached servers.
Use cases
- cache application data in memcached from Go
- connect to multiple memcached servers from Go
- store and retrieve key-value pairs in memcache
- add distributed caching to a Go web service
- read and write memcache items in Go
When to choose
- you need a mature, minimal Go client for Memcached
- you want a well-known client maintained by a Go core developer
- your app needs to talk to a cluster of memcached servers
When to avoid
- you use Redis instead of Memcached
- you need advanced features like consistent hashing or SASL beyond the basics
- you are not programming in Go
