best practice with memcache/php - multi memcache nodes
- by user62835
So I am working on a web app - that has to be built for scalability. It stores frequent MySQL querys into the cache. I have pretty much everything built and ready to go - but I am concerned on best practices on handling where to cache the data. I've talked to a few people and one of them suggested to split each key/value across all the memcache nodes.
Meaning if i store the example:
'somekey','this is the value'
it will be split across lets say 3 memcache servers.
Is that a better way? or is memcache more built on a 1 to 1 relationship?. For example.
store value on server A till it faults out - go to server B and store there.
that is my current understanding from the research I have done and past experience working with memcache.
Could someone please point me in the right direction in this and let me know which way is best or if I completely have this mixxed up.
Thanks
