Overall Satisfaction with Redis

We are using Redis for one of our clients. We wanted to find a way to handle huge amounts of data for every user search and their MySQL was not able to handle it quickly. We were discussing going more toward NoSQL. After more R&D, we chose Redis. Now it is handling data in an excellent way. It's for a travel product where we are searching hotels and flight for queries given by users, and Redis is rocking here.
  • Handles huge data without any loss
  • more number of request at same time
  • node replication
  • Since this is in-memory database but when you use it as persistence DB then pricing will increase.
  • Does not support query like SQL
  • Redis require minimum hardware to setup.
  • It is very fast to read and write data compare to other database.
  • Now it replacing traditional data store.

The main factor of using Redis is the performance and product functionality, and it has a good reputation in growing NoSQL databases.
Redis reduces our database store cost. The Redis community is awesome and very active. We need a super fast database storage and Redis' performance is awesome. Redis takes less memory.

We have also done lot of research over NoSQL databases to find what is a good fit for our application. We finally decided to use Redis because:
  1. It requires very minimal hardware to set up.
  2. Supports key-value structure.
  3. Easy data structure.
  4. Great performance compared to MongoDB and CouchDB.
  5. Redis can be used multiple ways in a single application.
