Redis
In-memory cache, session store and message broker
About this program
The small piece that keeps the platform responsive: sessions, caches, queues and rate-limit counters that must not touch the disk on every request.
Features
- Sub-millisecond reads for session and cache data
- Pub/sub and streams for background job queues
- TTL and eviction policies per keyspace
- Persistence options from none to AOF every-second
Why we chose it
Because database load is the most common cause of a slow platform, and a cache in front of it costs almost nothing to run.
