Redis Review
Overall Satisfaction with Redis
Redis has been a vital component in our design, it's usage is mainly for caching API requests, but it also extends to other applications such as rate limiting and pub-sub mechanism.
- Latency.
- In-memory.
- Ease of use.
- Open source licensing was ambiguous.
- Redis has increased server throughput.
- It is scalable which has been very beneficial.
Our organization has multiple applications running in different languages, and Redis allows us to integrate well with different systems, especially for caching objects. In the future, we are planning to use it for streaming and indexing searches.
- Price
- Product Features
- Product Usability
- Product Reputation
It's open-source, and the community is strong, and paid enterprise support is available if needed.
Working in Redis has given us an extremely rapid development cycle as it is very easy to implement, and we hardly ever had to do production support to maintain the system.
