A multithreaded proxy for Redis Cluster that abstracts the cluster away so clients can talk to it as if it were a single Redis instance. It automatically routes queries to the correct node, handles ASK/MOVED redirections transparently, and supports both multiplexed and private connection models.

Use cases

• connect to a redis cluster with a client that doesn't support cluster protocol
• route redis commands to the correct cluster node automatically
• use a redis cluster like a single redis instance
• handle MOVED and ASK redirects transparently for redis clients
• run cross-slot redis commands like MGET across cluster nodes

When to choose

• your redis client library lacks native cluster support
• you want transparent cluster topology changes without client-side logic
• you need multiplexed connections to reduce connection count to a redis cluster

When to avoid

• running in production - the project is explicitly alpha and not actively maintained
• you can use a cluster-aware redis client instead
• you need guaranteed atomicity for cross-slot commands
