I know I’m inviting the full wrath of a lot of purists but I thought I’d
ask anyway. Is there a way to store a model (activerecord based one)
straight into memcached and skip the database all together?
Basically I’d like to make a bunch of web service calls, instantiate
some objects from the results (like :user, :user_interests,
:user_friends, etc based on the normal Rails associations) write it to
memcache and read it back
Let the thrashing begin …

It’s not a guaranteed storage area. If that’s fine, then I see no
problem with it.

So where do you get the data from? How do the models know what
attributes they have? How long does this data need to persist?

Cool, not the question is how? Do I create some non-ActiveRecord
classes, load the web service results into those, put them into an array
and give it to memcached?
Thanks,
