Memorystore for Memcached is being deprecated and will be shut down on January 31, 2029. After February 1, 2027, you can't create Memorystore for Memcached instances in new projects unless these instances already exist in these projects. We recommend that you migrate your workloads to Memorystore for Valkey, which offers superior performance and features.
The per-second quota for management operations (instance create, delete,
update etc.) for Memorystore for Memcached is as follows, and is subject to
change:
Management API Requests Quota
Value
API read requests per 100s
500 (5 QPS)
API write requests per 100s

Memcached protocol/commands. These limits apply to each Google Cloud console
project and are shared across all applications and IP addresses using that
project.
