memcached
===========================================================

.. module:: smisk.ipc.memcached
.. versionadded:: 1.1.2

Memcached IPC backend.

If you need something that's more of a database, but bsddb wont do (because it's in local memory), have a look at `MemcacheDB <http://memcachedb.org/>`_ --- a distributed key-value storage system designed for persistency. It's basically a bsddb with the memcached protocol on top.
