Get Started with Amazon ElastiCache

Amazon ElastiCache is a web service that makes it easy to set up, manage, and scale distributed in-memory cache environments in the cloud. It provides a high performance, resizeable, and cost-effective in-memory cache, while removing the complexity associated with deploying and managing a distributed cache environment. Amazon ElastiCache is protocol-compliant with Memcached, so the code, applications, and most popular tools that you use today with your existing Memcached environments will work seamlessly with the service.
