## What it is
A Redis loadable module (written in C) that implements feed-forward neural networks as a native Redis data type. It compresses data collection, training, and inference into a single in-server API with online training in background threads.

## Use cases
- train a neural network inside redis
- simple classification and regression from user events
- predict which ad or promotion converts best
- online machine learning without a separate ML stack
- retrain a model as new data arrives in redis

## When to choose
- you already run Redis and want lightweight, simple ML for small regression/classification tasks
- you want training and inference co-located with your data store
- you need fast-to-train fully connected networks with automatic normalization

## When to avoid
- you need deep learning, CNNs, or RNNs for vision or sequence tasks
- you need an actively maintained project - the last release was 2018
- you need GPU acceleration or state-of-the-art model architectures

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: machine-learning, database, plugin-system
- domain: machine-learning, databases, artificial-intelligence
- platform: c, self-hosted
- tags: redis-module, feedforward-neural-networks, rprop, online-training, classification, regression, linux, macos
