There isn't really any difference - they both refer to the memcached
cache server (memcached is the actual name of the binary. people seem
to often use memcache as a verb or as the name of client libraries).

Memcache is one of the more common backends people use for caching in
rails. http://guides.rubyonrails.org/caching_with_rails.html has an
overview of various aspects of caching in rails.
