同一服务器上的多个memcache实例

Question

I am using a linux server. I have done a single memcache installation and all is fine. We are adding another application on the same server. It also requires memcache.

How do I set up memcache so that each application gets its own instance of memcache?

I am using codeigniter framework.

By default, memcache run on port 11211. But you can run as many memcache's instances on one server as you wish. Just specify another port to run - and configure your application to connect to the another port. Ex:

• instance with 64M on port 11212

  memcache -p 11212 -m 64 -u nobody -d

• instance with 128M on port 11213

  memcache -p 11213 -m 128 -u nobody -d

• instance with 20G on port 11214

  memcache -p 11214 -m 20480 -u nobody -d
