Memcached in one click.

Memcached is an in-memory cache you can run on your own machine. Launch it in Even Stacks in one click, serve it over trusted HTTPS, and let your AI agents operate it.

What is Memcached?

Memcached is a high-performance distributed in-memory key-value cache used to speed up web applications by reducing database load. It supports simple get/set/delete operations with time-based expiration.

Run Memcached in Even

Even Stacks launches Memcached as a managed container on your own machine. No compose files, no manual setup.

  1. Open the Even Stacks panel in Even. The container engine starts on demand.
  2. Find Memcached in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 11211, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://memcached.localhost.

Drive Memcached with your AI agents

Even ships an MCP, so any agent you run inside Even (Claude Code, Codex, and more) can operate Memcached directly, at both the UI level and the container level.

Through the Even MCP an agent can create tables, seed test data, run a migration, or inspect a schema, then tail the logs to confirm it worked. It runs commands inside the container, reads its logs, and for web apps opens and clicks through the interface in Even's own browser pane. Ask once, for example "set up Memcached and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: No web UI. Connect via telnet inside the container: docker exec -it memcached sh, then telnet localhost 11211. Data is in-memory only; there is no disk persistence or volume for stored values.
