Distributed Caching in Kubernetes

Is there a way to enable caching between pods in Kubernetes cluster? For eg: Lets say we have more than 1 pods running on High availability mode.And we want to share some value between them using distributed caching between the pods.Is this something possible?

There are some experimental projects to let you reuse the etcd that powers the cluster, but I probably wouldn’t. Just run your own using etcd-operator or something. The specifics will massively depend on what your exact use case and software is, distributed databases are among the most complex things ever.
