It is often referred +to as a data structure server since keys can contain strings, hashes, +lists, sets and sorted sets. + +You can run atomic operations on these types, like appending to a string; +incrementing the value in a hash; pushing to a list; computing set +intersection, union and difference; or getting the member with highest +ranking in a sorted set. + +In order to achieve its outstanding performance, Redis works with an +in-memory dataset. Depending on your use case, you can persist it either +by dumping the dataset to disk every once in a while, or by appending each +command to a log. + +Redis also supports trivial-to-setup master-slave replication, with very +fast non-blocking first synchronization, auto-reconnection on net split +and so forth. |
