## What it is
A Golang-based Kubernetes operator that provisions and manages Redis standalone, cluster, replication, and sentinel deployments via custom resource definitions. It includes built-in monitoring with redis-exporter, TLS support, and failover handling.

## Use cases
- deploy redis cluster on kubernetes
- manage redis sentinel setup with an operator
- automate redis failover and recovery in kubernetes
- run redis with tls and password authentication on k8s
- monitor redis with prometheus and grafana dashboards
- provision redis replication mode via crds

## When to choose
- you run Redis workloads on Kubernetes and want declarative, production-ready management
- you need automated cluster failover, sentinel, or replication mode setup
- you want built-in Prometheus monitoring and Grafana dashboards for Redis

## When to avoid
- you run Redis outside Kubernetes or on plain VMs
- you need Redis versions older than 6
- you prefer managing Redis manually with Helm charts or StatefulSets without an operator
