Memcached: Encrypt Memcached communications (TLS)

This documentation is part of the Getting Started guide. You can view the complete guide here: How to begin with Memcached.

Welcome to the Stackhero documentation

Stackhero offers a fully managed Memcached cloud that simplifies application caching while ensuring security and high performance.

• Apply updates in just a few seconds with a single click.
• Benefit from consistent performance and enhanced security on a private, dedicated infrastructure.

Save time and focus on development. Stackhero's Memcached cloud hosting is up and running in around 5 minutes.

By default, Memcached does not encrypt communications. However, on Stackhero, TLS encryption is enabled by default.

You will need a client that supports TLS encryption. If your preferred client does not support TLS, you can use stunnel on your client server. Stunnel listens locally on port 11211 (for unencrypted data) and forwards this data to your Stackhero instance over a TLS encrypted connection.
