How to Create 1 Terabyte of Cache using Amazon ElastiCache

Published on Aug 18, 2011

This short demonstration explains how to quickly get started with Amazon ElastiCache -- a web service that makes it easy to deploy, operate and scale an in-memory cache in the cloud. The service improves the performance of web applications by allowing you to retrieve information from a fast, managed, in-memory caching system, instead of relying entirely on slower disk-based databases. Amazon ElastiCache is Memcached compatible, so your existing code, applications and popular tools will work seamlessly with the service. Learn more by visiting: http://aws.amazon.com/elasticache.
