public class GemFireMemcachedServer
extends Object

This is the Server that listens for incoming memcached client connections. This server understands the memcached ASCII protocol documented in memcached source control It then translates these commands to the corresponding GemFire commands, and stores the data in GemFire in a Region named "gemcached".
"gemcached" region is RegionShortcut.PARTITION by default, though a cache.xml can be provided to override region attributes. This class has a Main method that can be used to start the server.
