"Violin Memory gobbles up Gear6", 16th June 2010

  "Gear6 is a four-year-old startup that supplied Memcached software
   and also NFS caching. The former is an open source, distributed
   memory caching system that stores objects and data from a
   database on a storage array in DRAM.

   Users of memcached, but not Gear6 customers, include Wikipedia,
   Amazon, Facebook and Twitter. They provide faster response to
   users by reducing disk lookups for data. Gear6 had about 30
   customers for its product."
