Memcache Manager

M1

Memcache is a general-purpose distributed memory caching system which is managed at system's level. It requires access to the SSH console in order to know the status of service or refreshing it. This makes it difficult, or nearly impossible, for the Magento admin to get to know the status of this service or to reset the cache from the admin panel. 

What's the need?

Memcache manager extension is capable of showing the current status of the memcache service (i.e. Enabled/Disabled) as well as it can refresh or reset the cache from the Magento admin panel. This is usually not possible without accessing the system environment via SSH. It eases off the work of the administrator to reset the memcache alongside other caching settings and resetting options. 

NOTE: Please note that since memcache is a system level service, it cannot be enabled or disabled externally , so this extension can only show its current status but cannot change it's status from Enable to Disable or vice versa. Although it is capable enough to reset or refresh the cache.

Features:

1.    Configuration:
Admin will need to configure the host and port so that the extension can connect to Memcached service and perform respective operations. 

2.    Service Status: 
Admin will be able to know the status of the service from admin without the need to access SSH console anymore.

3.    Refresh the cache:
The most powerful feature is that Magento admin can reset or refresh the cache right from Magento admin without the need to access SSH console.  

Potential Scenarios & Usage:

• Use this extension when you have memcache service running at your Magento instance. 
• Very helpful when you want to know the status of the service from admin without the need to access SSH console. 
• The best part is that Magento admin can reset or refresh the cache right from Magento admin without the need to access SSH console.
