Instead of having the web servers communicate with the cache, we could also cache the results to common requests so that less requests get sent to the web servers. This would be efficient only if the answer to common requests is small and consistent

Memcached serves as a request response buffer which instead of being computed for a response, the responses are memoized and are sent back on further repeat requests. So this is a common way of implementing caching for frequently accessed pages on major websites. Usually icons in a shopping website like Amazon are memcached
