About

Apache Cassandra is an open-source, highly scalable, distributed NoSQL database.

Memcached is an open-source event-based key-value store that keeps data in memory to deliver very low latency access and high throughput.

It can handle over 200,000 operations per second on fast hardware, uses multi-threading to leverage multiple CPU cores, and applies Least Recently Used cache eviction policy when it runs out of memory.
