Stop settling for almost serverless
Blog post from Momento
The concept of a fully serverless architecture is becoming a reality, with the advent of serverless functions, storage, and databases, but caching remains a challenging aspect, often requiring manual configuration and maintenance. Current popular caching solutions like Redis and Memcached fall short of being truly serverless because they require customers to manage capacity, configuration, and scaling, leading to over-provisioned clusters and complicated maintenance. A truly serverless cache should operate without configuration, planned downtime, or the need for manual intervention during traffic bursts or hot key occurrences. Momento Cache claims to fill this gap by offering a caching solution that automatically manages hot keys, scales seamlessly during traffic spikes, and operates across multiple cloud providers without requiring changes to application code. It promises to deliver a hassle-free caching experience by eliminating the traditional complexities associated with cache management, thereby allowing developers to focus more on application logic rather than infrastructure maintenance.
