Memcache is one of the tools of scaling read heavy architectures, but keeping it in sync with MySQL can be a challenge: scalability vs. consistency ? Do it in the app or the database ? Storage engines or Triggers + UDF ? Let's rethink it and make it scalable and consistent: let's replicate from MySQL to memcache.
