Implementation was simple, we setup a multi-site active-active cluster in 30 minutes!
Reviewed on 03/03/2020
Our experience was great, we were able to accomplish our goals and the support team was more than generous with there time.
Pros
Redis Enterprise provide the ability to make our application highly available using their XDCR feature. We setup a multi-data center cluster the replicated in real-time so that we could design our application to actively server from multiple data centers without any additional latency.
Cons
It needs a better UI, I would definitely like to be able to exec commands without having to login to the hosts.

Many integrations Database
Reviewed on 06/07/2020
Experimental applications / demos for prospective apps / labs, Open Source mostly.
Pros
If I, as a developer, had the luxury of choosing a database by just a logo or colour palette initially, I would definitely choose a Redis (Redis Enterprise) because one of my favourite colours is scarlet. Surely there are other reasons for liking Redis: intuitiveness, innovative features, flexibility, scalability, ecosystem.
Cons
Since I use Redis Enterprise only in experimental applications / demos for prospective apps / labs, no issues so far.
Reasons for Switching to Redis Enterprise
Partly because it is the most affordable solution supporting experiments, partly because I follow the NoSQL philosophy.

Redis Enterprise is the best solution for a fast, in-memory production database
Reviewed on 11/06/2020
Redis Enterprise, with its optimizations and great support, enabled us to switch over completely to using Redis as a the cache layer for an enterprise-grade client application within the insurance industry.
Pros
Redis allows you to deploy an extremely fast production-grade clustered in-memory datastore that can be used as a cache layer or for any other fast data access needs. Redis Enterprise provides a managed solution which is deployed on memory-optimized instances for the best performance. Since this is an enterprise solution, the support provided for a given cluster is exemplary.
Cons
The cost for a given cluster is much higher than contemporary solutions. Configuring a custom security scheme for a cluster can be quite cumbersome.

God of cache management
Reviewed on 26/04/2021
Performance is an important factor in the applications we develop. For this reason, we use cache in many places. We store and manage all our cache objects on redis.
Pros
My favorite feature is that it has a very flexible and performance oriented structure. It is a cache management application that is already used all over the world and has a large community. In addition, you can easily perform all your operations via the command line.
Cons
The product price may be a little cheaper, although I don't see any shortcomings. A useful interface can also be provided.

Benefits Accrued by integrating Redis as a Cache storage .
Reviewed on 15/11/2018
The fact that Redis boasts of more than a billion downloads means that if you have a problem you are most likely not the first person to come across it. And with its massive online community your problem gets sorted quickly. For newbies, I highly recommend visiting Redis university website for online tutorials with practical applications of Redis data structures.
Pros
Redis has many benefits one of them being speed, reliability, and extensibility. Redis as a cache storage optimizes the fetching of data to and from the main storage. I also like the fact that with every Redis version that gets released a number of commands are added which simplifies work.
Cons
Redis to me has made my job simpler having not used any other product for a cache storage before am a Happy Redis user.

Customizable support
Reviewed on 03/05/2022
Redis is in a niche on its own. It is quite possibly the de facto for memory storage and fast read write speeds. Coupled with a highly integrated platform this thing rocks! You can plug on the service to your existing workflows to cache responses and respond faster as your demands grow.
Pros
I like the different tier of support offered for redis. In the early days of development the lowest tier is sufficient but as we scale the increase in tier was necessary for the types of support we needed
Cons
The cost - but it beats managing it on your own!

Redis is awesome
Reviewed on 07/01/2019
Redis is a basic, but extremely fast, key-value storage. We made a decision to use Redis because our use case didn't require a full blown database. We needed something to hold the data temporarily and loss of that data wouldn't lead to any issues. Redis was perfectly fitting our use case, and since then we are a bunch of happy Redis users.
Pros
- Being a non-SQL database, it does not require any structure. Perfect for unstructured data like key-value pairs.
- Redis is extremely fault tolerant. As soon as we write a record, it gets saved to the disk, without any performance issues.
- Redis is very lightweight. In docker it takes less than 30MB, so it is so easy to run multiple containers in cluster without taking too much power.
- Redis has a very good query API, and they are in their website each operation is clearly mentioned with its time complexity. This gives you a clear picture of performance. We didn't in fact do any performance testing because we trusted their site with all the information.
- Redis has a very strong community around it. We have never found an issue for which a solution didn't exist beforehand.
Cons
A cluster in Redis was a little hard to understand and deploy, but this is a one time thing to learn, no worries.

Redis Enterprise - OSS or Enterprise
Reviewed on 30/05/2019
Overall, I would really appreciate the Redis Enterprise engagement especially the support as that is something (apart from cluster support) which really makes it shine.
Pros
The pros over other solutions and its open source versions include:
1) On the fly scaling
Scale to more/less cores and memory as and when needed.
2) Cluster support
Support for clusters unlike the OSS version where the cap is on 1 core and fixed memory.
3) High availability & automatic failover
Redis enterprise manages the failover internally, so no crashes.
4) Predefined SLAs
A mandatory spec definition required by most enterprise customers
5) Monitoring, alerts, etc all such services are available
Get notifications on configurable events
Cons
Well, the pricing may not be very well suited for small companies which are low on budget. Not really a con as the open source version does most of the things except for the cluster support on the technical side of things.

Best available DB solution for data caching and session management.
Reviewed on 25/04/2020
The use-case for us was caching of data from DB queries and session management for multi-server application, Redis was made to handle these use cases so for us it was a perfect solution very less latency in data fetching helped us load a DB query heavy web page in few milliseconds
Pros
The data remains in memory so it's incredibly fast to fetch data based on keys. The design is fairly simple to use, there is a wide range of data types that can be used. clustering and data distribution is very easy when using Redis.
Cons
As its primary advantage is the speed of reading and write, the security features are limited in the DB. As the data resides in RAM for faster access, it could have performance effects if the server system is not well managed. There is still a lack of a proper UI management tool for Redis.

The nearly perfect cache
Reviewed on 12/03/2019
We're caching mostly everything now in Redis. Performace has ski-rocketed,ans the database decoupling has also improved application resilience and reliability.
Pros
Redis is a very flexible key-value store, allowing a lot of different data types. You can set a TTL for each key, you an have replica stores, you can set up a Pub/Sub, you can persist to disk, and all this in memory, with blazing fast performance and unbeatable reliability.
Cons
No database known to men can, to this date, provide consistent transactions, partition tolerance and high availability. Redis is no exception here.

We are using Redis to provide faster response rate by storing and retrieving data from redis. We also use redis to process our background jobs. Benefit i received from using redis is speed and reliability.
Pros
Redis is high performance open source in-memory cache. Redis is my favorite choice to store data into cache. Cache can be used in multiple use cases like session storage, page caching, temporary data caching for faster speed. Redis supports various data types: Lists , Sorted sets , hash tables, bitmaps, hyperloglogs and geospatial indexes. Redis provides secure and high availability service.
Cons
It is tricky and time taking process to setup redis for production environment if using to process background jobs.

Faster development times and easy database scaling.
Pros
It's fast, reliable, and easy to use. The added support and scalability of Redis Enterprise allows an already easy to use solution to scale to solve any problem.
Cons
Redis has some limitations with how it stores its data in order to achieve such great performance. Often times this trade off is well worth it for something that works as fast as Redis.

The best solution to use as cache
Reviewed on 08/10/2020
I use Redis on a daily basis to reduce the load on database servers and increase application performance.
All calls to my APIs first make queries on Redis and only in case of error go to the database, this ensures greater speed in the responses. However, good planning is necessary to ensure synchronization between the SQL database and REDIS. In addition to a good maturity to map data from one database to another.
Pros
I liked the simplicity of creating and retrieving keys and the integrations available with different programming languages
Cons
The documentation is a bit complex for those who have never had contact with the product, understanding some concepts of how to use the key types takes a while.
