Rueidis is a fast Redis client library for Go with auto pipelining and server-assisted client-side caching. It also provides distributed locks, generic object mapping, OpenTelemetry integration, and support for Redis Cluster, Sentinel, and Redis modules.

Use cases

• connect to redis from a go application
• speed up redis throughput with auto pipelining
• cache redis responses on the client side
• implement distributed locks in go
• use redis cluster or sentinel from go
• add tracing to redis calls with opentelemetry
• use redis pub/sub and streams in go

When to choose

• you are building a Go service that talks to Redis and want high performance
• you need server-assisted client-side caching or cache-aside helpers
• you need Redis Cluster, Sentinel, or module support in Go
• you want a type-safe command builder API

When to avoid

• your application is not written in Go
• you need a Redis server rather than a client
• you depend on the go-redis API and don't want an adapter layer
