Amazon launches ElastiCache

2011-08-23

Amazon today launches a new service onto its AWS platform.

Called, Amazon ElasticCache, a webservice that deploys, scales and operate an in-memory cache in the cloud.

Think of it as running Memcached in the cloud.

I’m currently working on fyra.sh, a CLI-first static site deployment tool where you push your site and it’s served globally through a built-in CDN, without the overhead of heavy platforms.
