About
The Firebase Realtime Database is a NoSQL cloud-hosted database developed by Google.
It stores data as 
JSON, synchronizes updates in real time across all connected clients, supports built-in offline persistence so apps continue working without network, and scales to around 200,000 concurrent client connections and 1,000 writes per second in a single 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.
