Memcached is a completely different product, why would you stop using that just because you start using Cassandra?

Memcaheddb on the other hand is, IMHO, a misguided project. People ditching that is a very good thing. :-)

The argument is that memcached is unnecessary because of the speed of Cassandra, and the fact that .6 includes it's own, built in, row level cache.
