Redis 4.x Cookbook

How to do it...

1. To enable both RDB and AOF persistence features, set the following configuration options in the configuration file of Redis:

$ cat conf/redis.conf |egrep "^save|^append" 
save 900 1 
save 300 10 
save 60 10000 
appendonly yes 
appendfilename "appendonly.aof" 
appendfsync everysec 

2. Populate some sample data into the Redis Server with the DEBUG POPULATE command and perform data persistence operations for both RDB and AOF. After those operations, set a simple string key-value pair:

127.0.0.1:6379> DEBUG POPULATE 1000000 
OK 
(1.61s) 
127.0.0.1:6379> SAVE 
OK 
127.0.0.1:6379> BGREWRITEAOF 
Background append only file rewriting started 
 
127.0.0.1:6379> SET FOO BAR 
OK 

3. Check the RDB dump and AOF append log:

$ ls -l dump.rdb appendonly.aof ...
