Our experience with Redis Enterprise

We have a country wide application for generation of an Electronic Way bill for the specific consignment/movement of goods from one place to another, either inter-state or intra-state and of value more than INR 50,000, required under the current GST regime in India typically showing the names of the consignor and consignee, the point of origin of the consignment, its destination, and route. We have specifically used Redis for Caching of user profile information used for authentication of the supplier, recipient, and the transporter. Redis has also been used to cache the Items and their Codes. In the future we also propose to use Redis for authentication and session management. The e-Way Bill replaces the Way Bill, which was a physical document and existed during the VAT regime for the movement of goods. The countrywide roll-out of the e-way bill system is targeted to reduce tax evasion with proper invoicing of the goods and to stop the practice of bogus invoicing of goods. It also plays an important part in the tracking of Goods with the use of robust technology like (RFID) Radio Frequency Identification Devices. Redis was implemented as a cache for all transporter data stored on the GSTN (Good and Services Tax Network). When a transporter entered their GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax ID Number) number into the system, their data was fetched from the cache and used to populate the bulk of the e-way bill.
