A Simple database Implementing a Dictionary
where keys are associated with values.
For e.g.: It can set the key “surname_1987” to the
string “Rohan”.
It is open sourced. First released in March 2009.
Redis takes entire dataset in memory. Dump of
dataset is created and loaded whenever server is
restarted.
Speed is the key feature. Estimated 80000+
operations per second at least
Values can be associated with:
Strings – Binary safe so they can hold text,
images, compressed data, etc.
Lists – Lists of Strings for operations like
append, list length, range of elements,
sorting of lists
Sets – Addition and deletion of elements
from a set, Intersection, union, subtraction,
etc.
Zsets – Zadd, Zrange, Zscore, Zcard
Some features like those of Memcached:
All data lives in the memory.
Faster, Light weight
Data exists in the memory
Support Multiple databases
Support for Integer counters
Atomic operations
Memcached is not persistent.
Memcached does not save as the purpose is to be used
only as a cache.
Redis has capability of being used as main DB for the
application.
Memcached uses key value model like Redis but keys
can be just string.
In Redis, values can be Lists, Sets, Zsets.
Strings- get, set, increment, decrement
Lists- push, pop, length, range, trim
Sets- add, remove, move, length, intersect, intersect
Some more commands useful – save, lastsave (can be
used to force and verify disk persistance)
These type of commands operate on database. They do not
operate on individual keys.
SELECT
MOVE
FLUSHALL
SHUTDOWN

Redis supports Persistence
Replication – Works as a master slave
Publish/Subscribe
Unreliable
Indexes take a lot of RAM.
