Hire for Memcached Mastery

You need a simple, fast, and scalable in-memory caching layer, and you don't need the complexity of Redis. You're here because you need an engineer who understands how to use Memcached effectively for object caching. You need an expert who can design a solid cache invalidation strategy and scale a distributed caching layer to reduce database load and speed up your application.

Sound Familiar?

Common problems we solve by providing true Memcached experts.

Is your application still serving stale data from the cache?

The Problem

Cache invalidation is one of the hard problems in computer science. An incorrect invalidation strategy leads to a poor user experience.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We find engineers who can implement robust cache invalidation strategies, knowing when to write-through, write-around, or use TTLs to ensure data consistency.

Proof: Expertise in cache invalidation strategies

What happens when your cache fills up?

The Problem

Without understanding Memcached's memory allocation (slabs) and eviction policies (LRU), you can't predict how it will behave under pressure.

The TeamStation AI Solution

Our engineers understand how Memcached manages memory, allowing them to configure it for optimal performance and predict its behavior at scale.

Proof: Understanding of Memcached's memory management

How do you scale your caching layer as your application grows?

The Problem

A single Memcached server won't be enough. You need a strategy to distribute your cache across multiple servers.

The TeamStation AI Solution

We vet for engineers who have experience with client-side hashing to build a scalable, distributed Memcached cluster that can grow with your application.

Proof: Experience with building distributed Memcached clusters
