Redis is an advanced in memory key-value store designed for a world where “Memory is the new disk and disk is the new tape”. Redis has some unique properties — like blazing read and write speed, rich atomic operations and asynchronous persistence — which make it ideally suited for a number of situations. This talk will introduce Redis and discuss its common usage patterns.
We will go through the following agenda to get familiar with Redis –
- What is Redis?
- Redis Data Types
- Available Redis Clients
- Supported datatypes and operations
- Performance
- Sweet-spots of Redis in common web-applications
- A real-life case study
- Redis adopters
We will end the talk with a demo of Redis showing how to store, retrieve and manipulate familiar data structures such as Sets, Lists, Strings and Hashes at blazingly fast speeds, atomically with persistence!
