Overlay Compatible Integrations
Works with your
existing cache.
Cachee doesn't replace your cache provider. It sits in front as an L1 acceleration layer — delivering ~10us cache hits while your existing backend handles durability. Zero code changes. Zero migration.
How It Works
Three steps. Ten minutes.
No migration, no data movement, no code changes. Cachee sits between your app and your existing cache.
01
Deploy Cachee Proxy
One Docker container. Set your API key and point UPSTREAM at your existing cache endpoint. Takes 3 minutes.
02
Swap One Connection String
Change your app's REDIS_HOST from your current provider to the Cachee proxy. Your existing Redis client works as-is.
03
L1 Serves Hot Data in ~10us
Cachee's Tiny-Cachee engine caches your hottest keys in-memory. Misses forward transparently to your existing backend.
Compatible Providers
Overlay any of these. Instantly.
Cachee speaks Redis protocol natively. Any RESP-compatible endpoint works out of the box. HTTP-based providers like CloudFlare KV use our built-in protocol adapter.
Most Popular
AWS ElastiCache
Redis • RESP Protocol
The most common Cachee overlay target. ElastiCache delivers <1ms in same-VPC, but Cachee's L1 serves hot keys 100x faster at ~10us with zero extra infrastructure.

Edge + L1
CloudFlare Workers KV
HTTP KV • Protocol Adapter
CloudFlare KV is great for global edge reads (10-50ms), but Cachee's L1 brings hot-key latency down to ~10us. Reduces CF API calls by 90%+, cutting both latency and cost.

Redis Cloud
Redis Labs • RESP Protocol
Redis Cloud provides managed Redis with active-active geo-distribution. Cachee adds an L1 layer that eliminates network round-trips for your hottest keys.

Azure Cache for Redis
Microsoft Azure • RESP Protocol (TLS)
Azure Cache uses TLS by default on port 6380. Cachee connects via rediss:// and adds L1 acceleration without changing your Azure infrastructure.

Memorystore provides fully managed Redis on Google Cloud. Cachee overlays it with an L1 layer, reducing read latency and Memorystore instance costs.

Upstash
Serverless Redis • RESP Protocol (TLS)
Upstash provides serverless Redis with per-request pricing. Cachee's L1 cuts Upstash API calls by 90%+, dramatically reducing your per-request costs.

Before & After
What changes when you add Cachee.
Your existing cache stays exactly where it is. Cachee adds an L1 layer in front.
| Metric | Your Provider Alone | Your Provider + Cachee |
|---|---|---|
| Hot key read latency | 1-50ms (network dependent) | ~10us (100-5000x faster) |
| Cache hit rate | 70-85% typical | 95%+ (AI pre-warming) |
| Provider API calls | 100% of reads hit backend | 90% served from L1 |
| Monthly provider cost | Full price | 60-90% reduction |
| Code changes required | N/A | Zero — swap connection string |
| Data migration | N/A | None — overlay, not replace |
| Rollback plan | N/A | Instant — revert connection string |
| Setup time | N/A | 10 minutes |
Your cache. Supercharged.
Pick your provider in the setup wizard. Cachee handles the rest.
