EVCache is a memcached & spymemcached based caching solution that is mainly used for AWS EC2 infrastructure for caching frequently used data.

EVCache is an abbreviation for:
* Ephemeral - The data stored is for a short duration as specified by its TTL (Time To Live).
* Volatile - The data can disappear any time (Evicted).
* Cache - An in-memory key-value store.
