Apart from being very similar to the API of Cache::Memcached, the Cached::Memcached::Managed API allows for management of groups of values, for simplified key generation and expiration, as well as version and namespace management and a few other goodies. . Over the functionality provided by the Cache::Memcached module, this module provides: automatic key generation, ID refinement, version management, namespace support, group management, easy (default) expiration specification, automatic fork() detection, magical increment, instant invalidation, dead memcached server detection, starting/stopping memcached servers and an extensive test-suite. . The basic premise is that each piece of information that is to be cached, can be identified by a key, an optional ID, a version and a namespace. The key determines the basic identification of the value to be cached. The ID specifies a refinement on the basic identification. The version ensures that differently formatted values with the same key and ID do not interfere with each other. The namespace ensures that different realms of information (for instance, for different users) do not interfere with each other.
