A full-featured Redis cache and session backend for Django, built on redis-py. It supports pluggable clients, parsers, and serializers, primary/secondary setups, and raw access to the Redis connection pool.

Use cases

• use redis as django cache backend
• store django sessions in redis
• configure redis caching with url connection strings
• access raw redis client from django
• support redis sentinel or primary/secondary caching in django

When to choose

• you need a mature, production-proven Redis cache backend for Django
• you want pluggable serializers/clients and raw Redis access
• you need Redis-backed Django sessions

When to avoid

• your project does not use Django
• you only need a plain redis-py client without Django integration
• you use a cache backend other than Redis, like memcached
