How to configure Memcache for Django on Google cloud AppEngine?

Question

In my settings i have:

CACHES = {
    'default': {
        'BACKEND': 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache',
        'LOCATION': '127.0.0.1:11211',
    }
}

Anything else needed?

The way to enable Memcache for Django on GCP depends on which product you are using (App Engine, Compute Engine, Kubernetes Engine) [1]

Since you are using App Engine, it is built-in. You can find examples on how to use Memcache with GCP here. [2]
