Redis is an open-source, in-memory data platform that provides fast key‑value storage, caching, and advanced data structures. It also includes modules for full‑text search, vector similarity search, and stream processing.
Use cases
- Cache frequently accessed data to reduce latency
- Store session data for web applications
- Implement real‑time leaderboards and rate limiting
- Perform full‑text and vector similarity search for AI applications
- Build event‑driven messaging pipelines with streams
When to choose
- You need sub‑millisecond read/write performance
- Your workload benefits from in‑memory data structures and atomic operations
- You require a versatile platform that can act as a cache, database, and search engine
- You are building AI or RAG pipelines that need fast vector retrieval
When to avoid
- Your data size far exceeds available memory and you cannot afford scaling
- You need strong ACID transactional guarantees across multiple nodes
- Your environment restricts the use of in‑memory services for security or compliance
