Membrain is flash-optimized software cache and persistent NoSQL data store, 100% compatible with the widely-used memcached API.
A software cache is often used, standalone or in front of a database, to increase application performance. Memcached is the most widely-used software cache, powering many high-volume web sites. But traditional memcached has a dark side. The need to keep your data in DRAM to get great performance can lead to excessive sharding, across many servers that are inefficiently utilized.
Membrain is Schooner’s massively multi-threaded implementation of memcached, optimized to exploit flash memory. Membrain delivers 10x server consolidation, greatly simplifying your datacenter scaleout for capacity and performance. Membrain also delivers persistence, for use as a highly-efficient NoSQL data store, and enterprise-grade synchronous replication and immediate failover.
