Cache maybe, but caché (the word used to name the actual
DBMS product) is french.

Anyway, is there any particular reason not to pronounce it as it
is written and as the producer/seller itself prounounces it ?

This all started with you claiming that "They sound the same".
Just listen to the video I linked to earlier (that you snipped
early). You are wrong. Caché and cash are pronounced different.

And if so, since Caché uses an accent, it can't be english.
Didn't you say earlier that caché is an english word ?
