Introduction
Redis is a very popular, memory-based, lightweight key-value database. Strictly speaking, Redis is a data structure server, according to Matt Stancliff (@mattsta), one of the most important contributors to Redis (https://matt.sh/thinking-in-redis-part-one). The author of Redis, Salvatore Sanfilippo (@Antirez), first called it Redis, which stands for REmote DIctionary Server because Redis natively implements various kinds of data structures in memory, and provides a variety of APIs for manipulating these data structures. More importantly, Redis supports high-performance command processing, high availability/scalability architectures, and also data persistence features as a long running data store service.
