We’ve been using memcached on both our sites for a while now to help alleviate database load and speed things up in general.
However, we’ve been lacking a good web-based manager to see the cache status and manually clear the cache. (I’ve been doing this via telnet on the command line and have been to busy to write my own script…..)
Today, I stumbled accross this gem: http://livebookmark.net/journal/2008/05/21/memcachephp-stats-like-apcphp/
It’s a simple GUI for memcached that is written in PHP and was exactly what I was looking for!
Hi Craig, FYI Gear6 will release 2 open source tools to augment memcached in next month. The first of these tools, Stats Proxy, will allow you to use a web browser to get real-time stats (instead of the command line interface) and will run synthetic health check stat on memcached.
Hi Bret,
Thanks for the heads up. Looks interesting
