"My Experience of Using Redis"

4/5

What do you like best about Redis Software?

I can use redis to trigger event based actions in almost real-time. It's lightweight and easy to install on our server. The key-value data is simple too, suitable for simple use like an event parameters or something like that Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Redis Software?

Its reliability is not as good as others. I've got several disconnected events and its not because of network connection. I've debugging it, and the problem is from the redis connection lost without a reason. and when i want to debug its value using Redis Commander its not as friendly as the others Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Redis Software:

Redis is lightweight, powerful, and fast for in-memory database. If you're using it right, it will be give your platform a big boost in performance.

I can use it to trigger another event in another platform in almost realtime. But take cautions, sometime i got Redis Connection lost without any reason (and its not network problem) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Redis Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can create a queue too using redis with the help of a plugin (bee-queue). I can send a trigger to another platform on-the-fly after some event triggered. So i can make my action more reactive and real time too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing musch. Redis is single-threaded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Redis Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used redis sentinal as cache and store sessions. It's key value store that can use string, hash, list, sets as keys. We used redis as cache because it is fast to access keys and get values. 2 to power 32 keys can store per instant. In case of a failure in Redis cluster, Sentinel will automatically detect the point of failure and bring the cluster back to stable mode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
