EdgeDB vs Memcached: What are the differences?

What is EdgeDB? The Next Generation Object-Relational Database. An object-relational database that stores and describes the data as strongly typed objects and relationships between them.

What is Memcached? High-performance, distributed memory object caching system. Memcached is an in-memory key-value store for small chunks of arbitrary data (strings, objects) from results of database calls, API calls, or page rendering.

EdgeDB and Memcached belong to "Databases" category of the tech stack.

EdgeDB and Memcached are both open source tools. It seems that Memcached with 9K GitHub stars and 2.6K forks on GitHub has more adoption than EdgeDB with 3.01K GitHub stars and 64 GitHub forks.

      MySQL
      The MySQL software delivers a very fast, multi-threaded, multi-user, and robust SQL (Structured Query Language) database server. MySQL Server is intended for mission-critical, heavy-load production systems as well as for embedding into mass-deployed software.
      PostgreSQL
      PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions.
      MongoDB
      MongoDB stores data in JSON-like documents that can vary in structure, offering a dynamic, flexible schema. MongoDB was also designed for high availability and scalability, with built-in replication and auto-sharding.
      Microsoft SQL Server
      Microsoft® SQL Server is a database management and analysis system for e-commerce, line-of-business, and data warehousing solutions.
      SQLite
