## What it is
Redix is a fast, pipelined, resilient Redis (and Valkey) client written in pure Elixir. It provides an idiomatic interface for sending arbitrary Redis commands with automatic reconnection, pipelining, Pub/Sub, SSL, and Sentinel support.

## Use cases
- connect to redis from elixir
- send redis commands in elixir
- pipeline redis commands for performance
- use redis pub/sub in an elixir app
- connect to redis sentinel
- cache data in elixir with redis
- automatically reconnect to redis after network errors

## When to choose
- you need a pure-Elixir Redis driver with no native dependencies
- you need pipelining, Pub/Sub, SSL, or Sentinel support
- resiliency and automatic reconnection matter for your app

## When to avoid
- you want a high-level ORM-like wrapper around Redis commands
- you're not working in Elixir or the Erlang VM

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: database-driver, caching, message-queue
- domain: databases, backend, developer-tools
- platform: elixir, jvm
- tags: redis, redis-sentinel, pubsub, pipelining, valkey
