Introduction to Redis

2022-04-14 at 6:00pm

Duration: 1 hour

This session will serve as a practical introduction to Redis, a common distributed in-memory data store. By the end of the session, students will be able to answer questions like:

  • What is Redis?
  • How can I explain what it does to my non-technical manager / PM in a way they'll understand?
  • What kinds of problems does Redis solve?
  • What shouldn't you use Redis for?
  • How should I deploy Redis in my environment?

We'll also go through a couple of case studies that concretely demonstrate common problems solved by Redis.
