libmemcached is a C client library to the memcached server (http://danga.com/memcached). It has been designed to be light on memory usage, thread safe, and provide full access to server side methods.
Welcome to the newly open sourced SHOP.COM Cache System: sccache
What is it?
The SHOP.COM Cache System is an object cache system that...
* is an in-process cache and external, shared Cache
* is horizontally scalable
* stores cached objects to disk
* supports associative keys
* is non-transactional
* can have any size key and any size data
* does auto-GC based on TTL
* is container and platform neutral
A library for using Memcached as a second level distributed cache in Hibernate.

memcached is a high-performance, distributed memory object caching system, generic in nature, but intended for use in speeding up dynamic web applications by alleviating database load.
Scalaris is a scalable, transactional, distributed key-value store. It can be used for building scalable Web 2.0 services.
Scalaris uses a structured overlay with a non-blocking Paxos commit protocol for transaction processing with strong consistency over replicas. Scalaris is implemented in Erlang.
