You might want to rename the howto to reflect this as
suggested earlier. Unfortunately the kind of audience
you are likely to target cannot apply "common sense"
to do these things.

task oriented doesnt necessarily mean a tutorial.
Since I am on the fedora docs list I am aware of the
increased amount of activity in the last few weeks.
You can file your doc in the bugzilla and discuss it
there if you are interested.

I wouldnt want to trust a random IP. Please consider

Since your document is fedora specific it might be a
better idea to follow whats well standardised with
that particular distro.

You might want to explain better what it is capable
of. "Cache" is rather a confusing name for a database
server. You might want to compare it with other
alternatives like MySQL and Postgres. Its what the
rest of us are probably more used to.

You can submit it to the list when you think its
ready.
