# spring-projects/spring-data-redis

Provides support to increase developer productivity in Java when using Redis, a key-value store. Uses familiar Spring concepts such as a template classes for core API usage and lightweight repository style data access.

## What it is
Spring Data Redis is part of the Spring Data portfolio, providing configuration and access to Redis from Spring applications via low-level and high-level abstractions. It offers RedisTemplate, repository support, pub/sub, Sentinel/Cluster support, and reactive APIs over Lettuce and Jedis drivers.

## Use cases
- use redis as a cache in a spring boot app
- store and retrieve java objects in redis
- implement pub/sub messaging with redis
- connect to redis cluster or sentinel from spring
- use redis repositories for key-value data access
- reactive redis access with lettuce
- implement atomic counters backed by redis

## When to choose
- you are building a Spring or Spring Boot application that uses Redis
- you want Spring-style repository and template abstractions over Redis
- you need Redis caching, pub/sub, or cluster support with portable exception handling

## When to avoid
- you are not using the Spring ecosystem and prefer a plain Redis client like Lettuce or Jedis directly
- you need a different database than Redis

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: database-driver, orm, caching, serialization, message-queue
- domain: databases, backend, developer-tools
- platform: jvm
- tags: spring-data, redis, key-value-store, lettuce, jedis, redis-template, reactive
