Working with the Redis cache database

Redis is another NoSQL database that is available in Azure. It's a key-value store that's optimized for performance. It achieves this by working with an in-memory dataset. Redis can persist data to disk by either dumping the dataset to disk every once in a while or by appending each command to a log. In contrast to most database systems, persistence is optional. Because of this lightning-fast in-memory approach, Redis is very well suited for caching data. Redis works best on Linux systems, which is no problem for Azure since Microsoft developed a port for 64-bit Windows systems.
