About Redis
Redis is a speedy in-memory database. Often used for caching and message brokerage, it supports a variety of different data-types. Redis is an open-source, low maintenance key/value store. Redis's lightning fast speed comes from its architecture – an in-memory database which keeps your entire dataset in RAM for fast access, handling persisting to disk in the background.
