The server_key in PHP's Memcached extension is a string that is used as the key for identifying a specific Memcached server in a pool of servers. When storing or retrieving data from a Memcached server, you need to specify the server_key of the server you want to use. If you have multiple servers in your Memcached pool, using the correct server_key ensures that the data is stored on and retrieved from the correct server.
