NAME
     nutcracker - Fast, light-weight proxy for memcached and Redis

SYNOPSIS
     nutcracker [options]

DESCRIPTION
     nutcracker,  also known as twemproxy (pronounced "two-em-proxy"), is a fast
     and lightweight proxy for the memcached and Redis protocols.

     It was primarily built to reduce the connection count  on	backend  caching
     servers, but it has a number of features, such as:

     *	    Maintains persistent server connections to backend servers.

     *	    Enables pipelining of requests and responses.

     *	    Supports multiple server pools simultaneously.

     *	    Shard data automatically across multiple servers.

     *	    Supports  multiple	hashing  modes	including consistent hashing and
	    distribution.

     *	    High-availability by disabling nodes on failures.

     *	    Observability through stats exposed on stats monitoring port.
