Overall Satisfaction with Redis
[It's being used as a] Caching service for quick key lookups.
- Quick key lookups.
- Distribution of data is easy and reliable.
- Almost HA.
- HA automatic failover for master and promoting slave on own.
- Doesn't handle 1M r/s sadly.
- Cross DC replication not so great.
- Reduced need for high end DBservers.
- Better than memcacheD.
- Doesn't do well for time series data though, which sucks.
- Aerospike Database, MemCacheD and Couchbase
- Redis vs. Aerospike ... Aerospike is way BETTER. But very expensive.
- Between Redis and MemCacheD, Redis outright is better than it.
- Couchbase is better than Redis, but CouchB is expensive
- Cockroach is really nice, but still kind of relatively new compared to redis.
- rethinkDB is comparatively better than redis. But misses out on geolocational info which redis supports.
