Frequently Asked Questions
Is memcache secure?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memcached
Memcached lacks authentication and security features, meaning it should only be used on servers with a firewall set up appropriately.
Memcache-Hosting.com sets up your memcache to make it accessible only from your dedicated app servers (or pools of them) which often gives you a great level of protection. Also a potential hacker needs to know your keys in order to access your cache.
Can I use app servers outside of EC2?
Yes but you may experience slight delays depending on your server location.
