Reviews ](https://www.g2.com/products/redis-software/reviews) # Redis Software Features ##### ## Data Management (11) Data Model Stores data as key-value pairs where key is a unique identifier. Data Types Supports multiple data types like lists, sets, hashes (similar to map), sorted sets etc. Data Model Stores and queries data as JSON-like documents. Data Types Supports multiple data types like lists, sets, hashes (similar to map), sorted sets etc. Built - In Search Allows users to index at ingest and query endlessly across data. Event Triggers Notifies specific events like document inserts, updates, replaces, deletes etc and responds in real-time. Data Model Designed to store interconnected data consisting of nodes and edges.

Event Triggers Notifies specific events like document inserts, updates, replaces, deletes etc and responds in real-time. Query Language Powerful query language that allows users to access patterns like traversals, JOINs, search, geospatial etc. Show More ##### ## Availability (8) Auto Sharding Implements auto horizontal data partitioning that allows storing data on more than one node to scale out. Auto Recovery Restores a database to a correct (consistent) state in the event of a failure. Data Replication Copy data across multiple servers through master-slave, peer-to-peer replication architecture etc. Auto Sharding Implements auto horizontal data partitioning that allows storing data on more than one node to scale out.
