Best caching solution

  • July 28, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I was able to easily build a key value data store using redis. Using the replication function of redis 3.0, we were able to respond effectively to failures. Redis is used for session management of applications. It is also used to centrally manage meta data.
What do you dislike about the product?
You should keep in mind that Redis's cache TTL operates in a sampling manner. If you need to process Expired Event of a large amount of data, CPU usage may increase.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used for DB query result cache. It was used as an application session store. It was also used for application development based on TTL Expired Event.

Perfect for real-time operations

  • May 07, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
How it handles large amounts of event subscriptions quickly; it contains useful data structures which allow for easy querying
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of documentation; debugging can be onerous
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Handling a rapid influx and broadcast of WebRTC events with multiple subscribers. We have realised it's very quick and scaleable

Does the Job Pretty Good

  • January 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Fast Key Value Hash operations.
Slow Latency.
Expired Keys
Cloudwatch Integration.
What do you dislike about the product?
Single Threaded. You won't benefit from having multi-core CPUs.
Lack of having a GUI client
Maybe lack of good training materials. I always find difficulty finding answers. It's either out of date or takes a lot of time to get answers to what I want
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly caching. We used to cache the locations of the sales users in real time inside Redis.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
A lot of variation in data types.
Perfect for read-intensive applications.
Supports many programming languages.
The replication feature is very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the documentation is very clear
The data querying could be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We solved many problems such as
- Sharing of cache between multiple microservices
- We usually put the data read-intensive records in the cache for example the tending news for news website

Scaled our Php Systems 100x and turned a 1 hour lag ELK cluster into realtime.

  • January 19, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its an all in one Utility Pack that uses very little memory on startup. I have used it for storing XML hotel master data as Tables rows. While caching inventory as Key/Values and as a Broker to improve performance for the ELK stack. The distributed cache makes it even faster when using multiple data-centers across continents.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a very old pre-compiled version for Windows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our greatest challenge was Session replication & Session storage for our LAMP Php websites. We were subject to use sticky session based Load-balancing, but as soon as we realized Redis can store Php sessions, we started focusing on development instead of platform scaling. We increased our site/hits by 100x times and sales by 10x within a short period. We also used Redis as a broker for the ELK stack to reduce lag time to almost realtime.

Optimal In Memory Store

  • January 18, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility of using it with many programming languages.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of UI client
Working in Windows in a pain
Lack of good tutorials and documentation
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly caching. Pre computing tasks that are required on each API call and save it in the cache. No need to compute if the data is already available in the cache. Saves so much time and CPU consumption.

My Experience of Using Redis

  • January 18, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can use redis to trigger event based actions in almost real-time. It's lightweight and easy to install on our server. The key-value data is simple too, suitable for simple use like an event parameters or something like that
What do you dislike about the product?
Its reliability is not as good as others. I've got several disconnected events and its not because of network connection. I've debugging it, and the problem is from the redis connection lost without a reason. and when i want to debug its value using Redis Commander its not as friendly as the others
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can create a queue too using redis with the help of a plugin (bee-queue). I can send a trigger to another platform on-the-fly after some event triggered. So i can make my action more reactive and real time too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Redis is lightweight, powerful, and fast for in-memory database. If you're using it right, it will be give your platform a big boost in performance.
I can use it to trigger another event in another platform in almost realtime. But take cautions, sometime i got Redis Connection lost without any reason (and its not network problem)

Redis for Distribution Cache

  • January 17, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's provide keys-value store. Distribution of data is easy and reliable. Fast key lookup. Support for many languages.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing musch. Redis is single-threaded.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used redis sentinal as cache and store sessions. It's key value store that can use string, hash, list, sets as keys. We used redis as cache because it is fast to access keys and get values. 2 to power 32 keys can store per instant. In case of a failure in Redis cluster, Sentinel will automatically detect the point of failure and bring the cluster back to stable mode.

Because Redis can minimalizes resource using Caching

  • January 13, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Redis is best for caching, easy to set up, and easy to use. I'm still new with Redis, but I really like Redis because Redis is really helping me to cache data, I usually use Redis on Heroku or on my local machine, it's really easy to setup Redis on Heroku because you can just select from the Heroku features you need, and select the Redis features, it really helps me to deploy an app to Heroku using Redis.
What do you dislike about the product?
No, I really like Redis, I don't think that I disliked Redis
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
API request faster if using Redis because our data is cached on Redis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think we should start using Redis because with Redis you can cache your data, I usually use Redis on Heroku or on my local machine, it's really easy to setup Redis on Heroku because you can just select from the Heroku features you need, and select the Redis features, it really helps me to deploy an app to Heroku using Redis.
