Memcached integration for Grafana Cloud
Memcached is a distributed, in-memory key-value store used to speed up dynamic database-driven websites by caching information in memory. The Memcached integration enables the Grafana Agent to send metrics to Grafana Cloud. The integration also creates a useful default dashboard for visualization of Memcached metrics within Grafana Cloud.
This integration monitors Memcached instances.
Use the walkthrough in Grafana Cloud to install the Memcached integration.
