For vertical scaling, Memcached allows augmenting existing servers with additional CPU cores and memory, thereby enhancing the capacity of the caching pool to manage higher traffic volumes and larger data loads. The decision to choose between Redis and Memcached is complex due to each offer’s unique advantages.

While this may not seem significant for websites with low traffic, as traffic to the site begins to increase, so does the amount of energy consumed. It’s a win-win all round!
