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
