Thanks LesMikesell you were right there is nothing mentioned anything about data being backed up in that link . What i really want to convery is that if one of the Memcahe Server one is is down , then automatically Data is being obtained from Memcahe Server two , which avoids single point of failure . so i don't care if Data is being obtained from any of the defined servers .
( that is what i mean to say data being copied to other location , i sincerely if it creates a different meaning in this context ) (becuase as a end user i don't bother from which the data is being obtained ) LesMikesell On Friday, 12 October 2012 21:51:22 UTC+5:30, LesMikesell wrote: > > On Fri, Oct 12, 2012 at 11:00 AM, Kiran Kumar <krn...@gmail.com<javascript:>> > wrote: > > > > Could you please check this link > > https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/memcached/YCKNM6wRTbk where the > > author is saying that if you maintain two instances of servers in the > list , > > the Data will be automatically backed up to the other server also , is > > thisn't clustering ?? > > I don't see anything about data being 'backed up' in that link.
