 morss uses caching to make loading faster. There are 3 possible cache backends:
 
 - `(nothing/default)`: a simple python in-memory dict-like object.
-- `CACHE=sqlite`: sqlite3 cache. Default file location is in-memory (i.e. it
-will be cleared every time the program is run). Path can be defined with
-`SQLITE_PATH`.
-- `CACHE=mysql`: MySQL cache. Connection can be defined with the following
-environment variables: `MYSQL_USER`, `MYSQL_PWD`, `MYSQL_DB`, `MYSQL_HOST`
 - `CACHE=redis`: Redis cache. Connection can be defined with the following
 environment variables: `REDIS_HOST`, `REDIS_PORT`, `REDIS_DB`, `REDIS_PWD`
