## What it is
Predis is a flexible and feature-complete Redis/Valkey client library written entirely in PHP, requiring no native extension. It supports Redis 3.0 through 8.0, clustering, sentinel, replication, pipelining, transactions, and Lua scripting.

## Use cases
- connect to redis from php
- use redis for caching in a php application
- work with redis cluster or sentinel in php
- run redis transactions and lua scripts from php
- pipeline redis commands
- store session data in redis from php

## When to choose
- you need a pure-PHP Redis client without installing a C extension
- you need broad Redis version support including clustering and sentinel
- you want customizable commands and connection backends

## When to avoid
- you need maximum performance from a native extension like phpredis
- your project does not use PHP

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: database-driver, caching
- domain: databases, backend, web-development, developer-tools
- platform: php, cross-platform
- tags: redis, valkey, redis-cluster, redis-sentinel, key-value-store, composer
