About
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.
SQLite is a lightweight open source cross-platform single-file SQL database engine with zero-configuration and serverless architecture.
It implements most of SQL-92 standard, supports ACID transactions even after system crashes, offers JSON support and partial indexes, and allows databases up to about 281 terabytes.
