Dimensions summary
You pay hourly for each server profile you choose, billed per environment. Every profile is named by its RAM and vCPU combination, from Ent-4/2 (4GB RAM, 2 vCPUs) up to Ent-256/64 (256GB RAM, 64 vCPUs). Pricing scales as you select more memory, more processing cores, or both. Each environment includes 2 servers for high availability, so your hourly charge reflects that pairing. You pick the profile that matches your workload size. Software charges appear separately from the cloud infrastructure costs you pay directly to AWS.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each profile names a virtual machine spec by RAM and vCPUs. Ent-16/2 means a VM with 16GB RAM and 2 vCPUs running NCache in a managed Docker container. Each server uses one VM, and every environment deploys two servers for high availability, so you get two VMs of that spec.
Each environment includes two servers for high availability, and that pairing drives the hourly charge. You can run a single server, but you lose replication and drop to the lowest infrastructure tier. Two or more servers is recommended. Charges follow the servers and profile you deploy.
Software and infrastructure bill separately. Software covers the hourly server charges for your chosen profile. Infrastructure, paid directly to AWS, covers the VMs, a public network load balancer with hourly and data processing fees, and a public IP. The scaling group and private DNS carry no charge.

This CloudFormation template provisions a complete NCache Cloud deployment: an Auto Scaling Group of EC2 instances running NCache in Docker containers, a security group for cluster and client traffic, and an IAM role enabling automatic cluster discovery. When new instances launch, whether at initial deployment or during scale-out, they automatically discover existing cluster members via the Auto Scaling Group and join the NCache cluster with no manual configuration. Scale-in events trigger a graceful node departure before termination, ensuring cluster stability.
CloudFormation Template (CFT)
AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."
Version release notes
Initial release of NCache Cloud for AWS Marketplace. Includes Docker-based NCache deployment on Ubuntu 24.04, with automatic Auto Scaling Group cluster discovery and graceful scale-in handling.
Additional details
Usage instructions
After launching this CloudFormation stack, NCache Cloud will automatically provision an Auto Scaling Group of EC2 instances running NCache in Docker containers. Nodes discover each other via the Auto Scaling Group and join the cache cluster automatically; no manual cluster configuration is required.
Deployment Parameters:
- FirstName, LastName, CompanyName, EmailAddress
- ClusterSize: Number of NCache nodes to launch (minimum 1, default 3). Increasing this value and updating the stack will scale the cluster automatically.
- InstanceType: EC2 instance type for cluster nodes (default: t3.large).
Post-Deployment Access:
- Retrieve the stack Outputs (SecurityGroupId, AutoScalingGroupName) from the CloudFormation console.
- Connect to the NCache cluster from your application using the NCache client SDK on port 9800.
- Access the NCache Management Center on ports 8250 to 8251 for cluster monitoring and cache configuration.
- SSH access (port 22) is available for administration using the key pair specified at launch.
Scaling: To add or remove nodes, update the ClusterSize parameter and apply a stack update. New nodes automatically join the existing cluster; nodes being terminated during scale-in gracefully leave the cluster before shutdown to preserve data integrity.

NCache - The Fastest in Searching
Reviewed on Oct 21, 2022
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I love the speed of the applications that we use. It just cuts the search time to 0.2 to 0.5 seconds.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since it uses SQL like search, it can lag at times when you use multiple programs running at the same time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It caches the data in the application, and reduces the database trips, which can be expensive.

Reviewed on May 10, 2019
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
Pages starting loading significantly faster and we are saw way less database timeouts.
What do you dislike about the product?
We are afraid to scale with more users because we can’t guarantee the application won’t crash.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Pages take too long to load. We were seeing database timeouts. We were afraid to scale with more users because we can’t guarantee the application won’t crash. We couldn't find a single reliable service that helps us with all of these problems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I am always looking at ways to improve my projects without requiring a massive amount of time and effort to deploy. Some applications are ten-year-old legacy apps that need a helping hand. In contrast, there are others that are brand new greenfield architectures that need to be built to survive the next ten years. Caching is progressively becoming an important part of any tech stack.
NCache provides an excellent enterprise-level caching solution that would greatly enhance any application it was paired with.
