Eventcache is a PHP class for caching that:

• Is very fast
• Supports multiple backends
  • memcache
  • memcached
  • apc (has some bugs)
  • redis (needs 2.2)
  • file
• Is easy to implement
• Doesn't care about your framework
• Tries to solve the invalidation problem by using events & triggers
• Can be used as a wrapper around heavy functions

On the I held a presentation on Eventcache during the 2nd CakePHP borrel in Utrecht. It explains what Eventcache does and how you can implement it.

Setup

require_once APP . DS . 'vendors' . DS . 'eventcache' . DS . 'EventCache.php';
EventCache::setOption(array(
    'disable' => false, // Disable/Enable eventcache globally
    'adapter' => 'EventCacheAdapterRedis',
    'servers' => array(
        array(
            'host' => '10.0.0.135',
            'port' => 6379,
        ),
    ),
));

Most Basic Example

EventCache::write('name', 'Kevin');
$val = EventCache::read('name');
