Phpfastcache is a high-performance PHP caching library providing a single unified API over many backend drivers such as Redis, Memcached, MongoDB, Cassandra, and DynamoDB. It is PSR-6 and PSR-16 compliant and designed to alleviate database load in dynamic web applications for faster page loads.

Use cases

  • cache database query results in a php application
  • speed up dynamic web pages by caching rendered output
  • swap cache backends like redis or memcached without rewriting code
  • implement psr-6 or psr-16 caching in a php project
  • reduce database load for a high-traffic website
  • cache api responses in php

When to choose

  • you need a unified caching abstraction across many backend drivers in PHP
  • you want PSR-6/PSR-16 compliant caching
  • you need to reduce database load in a dynamic PHP web app
  • you want a mature, MIT-licensed cache library with active releases

When to avoid

  • your project is not PHP-based
  • you need a distributed cache coordination system rather than a simple cache layer
  • you rely on pre-V9 APIs since V9 breaks compatibility with earlier versions
  • you need caching outside of a PHP 8+ environment
