For developers, who are building real-time data-driven applications, Redis is the preferred, fastest, and most feature-rich cache, data structure server, and document and vector query engine.

Redis excels in various applications, including:

• Caching: Supports multiple eviction policies, key expiration, and hash-field expiration.
• Distributed Session Store: Offers flexible session data modeling (string, JSON, hash).
• Data Structure Server: Provides low-level data structures (strings, lists, sets, hashes, sorted sets, JSON, etc.) with high-level semantics (counters, queues, leaderboards, rate limiters) and supports transactions & scripting.
• NoSQL Data Store: Key-value, document, and time series data storage.
• Search and Query Engine: Indexing for hash/JSON documents, supporting vector search, full-text search, geospatial queries, ranking, and aggregations via Redis Query Engine.
• Event Store & Message Broker: Implements queues (lists), priority queues (sorted sets), event deduplication (sets), streams, and pub/sub with probabilistic stream processing capabilities.
• Vector Store for GenAI: Integrates with AI applications (e.g. LangGraph, mem0) for short-term memory, long-term memory, LLM response caching (semantic caching), and retrieval augmented generation (RAG).
• Real-Time Analytics: Powers personalization, recommendations, fraud detection, and risk assessment.

Redis is a popular choice for developers worldwide due to its combination of speed, flexibility, and rich feature set. Here's why people choose Redis for:

• Performance: Because Redis keeps data primarily in memory and uses efficient data structures, it achieves extremely low latency (often sub-millisecond) for both read and write operations. This makes it ideal for applications demanding real-time responsiveness.
• Flexibility: Redis isn't just a key-value store, it provides native support for a wide range of data structures and capabilities listed inWhat is Redis?
• Extensibility: Redis is not limited to the built-in data structures, it has amodules API that makes it possible to extend Redis functionality and rapidly implement new Redis commands
• Simplicity: Redis has a simple, text-based protocol andwell-documented command set
• Ubiquity: Redis is battle tested in production workloads at a massive scale. There is a good chance you indirectly interact with Redis several times daily
• Versatility: Redis is the de facto standard for use cases such as:
  • Caching: quickly access frequently used data without needing to query your primary database
  • Session management: read and write user session data without hurting user experience or slowing down every API call
  • Querying, sorting, and analytics: perform deduplication, full text search, and secondary indexing on in-memory data as fast as possible
  • Messaging and interservice communication: job queues, message brokering, pub/sub, and streams for communicating between services
  • Vector operations: Long-term and short-term LLM memory, RAG content retrieval, semantic caching, semantic routing, and vector similarity search

In summary, Redis provides a powerful, fast, and flexible toolkit for solving a wide variety of data management challenges. If you want to know more, here is a list of starting points:

• Introduction to Redis data types
• The full list of Redis commands
• Redis for AI
• Redis documentation

Redis Community Edition (Redis CE) was renamed Redis Open Source with the v8.0 release.

Redis Ltd. also offersRedis Software, a self-managed software with additional compliance, reliability, and resiliency for enterprise scaling,andRedis Cloud, a fully managed service integrated with Google Cloud, Azure, and AWS for production-ready apps.

If you want to get up and running with Redis quickly without needing to build from source, use one of the following methods:

• Redis Cloud
• Official Redis Docker images (Alpine/Debian)

  docker run -d -p 6379:6379 redis:latest

• Redis binary distributions
  • Snap
  • Homebrew
  • RPM
  • Debian
• Redis quick start guides

If you prefer tobuild Redis from source - see instructions below.

To get started as quickly as possible in your language of choice, use one of the following starter projects:

• Python (redis-py)
• C#/.NET (NRedisStack/StackExchange.Redis)
• Go (go-redis)
• JavaScript (node-redis)
• Java/Spring (Jedis)

To connect your application to Redis, you will need a client library. Redis has documented client libraries in most popular languages, with community-supported client libraries in additional languages.

• Python (redis-py)
• Python (RedisVL)
• C#/.NET (NRedisStack/StackExchange.Redis)
• JavaScript (node-redis)
• Java (Jedis)
• Java (Lettuce)
• Go (go-redis)
• PHP (Predis)
• C (hiredis)
• Full list of client libraries

redis-cli is Redis' command line interface. It is available as part of all the binary distributions and when you build Redis from source.

You can start a redis-server instance, and then, in another terminal try the following:

cd src./redis-cli

redis> pingPONGredis> set foo barOKredis> get foo"bar"redis> incr mycounter(integer) 1redis> incr mycounter(integer) 2redis>

For a more visual and user-friendly experience, useRedis Insight - a tool that lets you explore data, design, develop, and optimize your applications while also serving as a platform for Redis education and onboarding. Redis Insight integratesRedis Copilot, a natural language AI assistant that improves the experience when working with data and commands.

Redis provides a variety of data types, processing engines, and capabilities to support a wide range of use cases:

Important: Features marked with an asterisk (*) require Redis to be compiled with theBUILD_WITH_MODULES=yes flag whenbuilding Redis from source

• String: Sequences of bytes, including text, serialized objects, and binary arrays used for caching, counters, and bitwise operations.
• JSON: Nested JSON documents that are indexed and searchable using JSONPath expressions and withRedis Query Engine
• Hash: Field-value maps used to represent basic objects and store groupings of key-value pairs with support forhash field expiration (TTL)
• Redis Query Engine: Use Redis as a document database, a vector database, a secondary index, and a search engine. Define indexes for hash and JSON documents and then use a rich query language for vector search, full-text search, geospatial queries, and aggregations.
• List: Linked lists of string values used as stacks, queues, and for queue management.
• Set: Unordered collection of unique strings used for tracking unique items, relations, and common set operations (intersections, unions, differences).
• Sorted set: Collection of unique strings ordered by an associated score used for leaderboards and rate limiters.
• Vector set (beta): Collection of vector embeddings used for semantic similarity search, semantic caching, semantic routing, and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG).
• Geospatial indexes: Coordinates used for finding nearby points within a given radius or bounding box.
• Bitmap: A set of bit-oriented operations defined on the string type used for efficient set representations and object permissions.
• Bitfield: Binary-encoded strings that let you set, increment, and get integer values of arbitrary bit length used for limited-range counters, numeric values, and multi-level object permissions such as role-based access control (RBAC)
• Hyperloglog: A probabilistic data structure for approximating the cardinality of a set used for analytics such as counting unique visits, form fills, etc.
• *Bloom filter: A probabilistic data structure to check if a given value is present in a set. Used for fraud detection, ad placement, and unique column (i.e. username/email/slug) checks.
• *Cuckoo filter: A probabilistic data structure for checking if a given value is present in a set while also allowing limited counting and deletions used in targeted advertising and coupon code validation.
• *t-digest: A probabilistic data structure used for estimating the percentile of a large dataset without having to store and order all the data points. Used for hardware/software monitoring, online gaming, network traffic monitoring, and predictive maintenance.
• *Top-k: A probabilistic data structure for finding the most frequent values in a data stream used for trend discovery.
• *Count-min sketch: A probabilistic data structure for estimating how many times a given value appears in a data stream used for sales volume calculations.
• Time series: Data points indexed in time order used for monitoring sensor data, assettracking, and predictive analytics
• Pub/sub: A lightweight messaging capability. Publishers send messages to a channel, and subscribers receive messages from that channel.
• Stream: An append-only log with random access capabilities and complex consumption strategies such as consumer groups. Used for event sourcing, sensor monitoring, and notifications.
• Transaction: Allows the execution of a group of commands in a single step. A request sent by another client will never be served in the middle of the execution of a transaction. This guarantees that the commands are executed as a single isolated operation.
• Programmability: Upload and execute Lua scripts on the server. Scripts can employ programmatic control structures and use most of the commands while executing to access the database. Because scripts are executed on the server, reading and writing data from scripts is very efficient.

Support and instructions will be provided at a later date.

Redis can be compiled and used on Linux, OSX, OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD.We support big endian and little endian architectures, and both 32 bit and 64-bit systems.

It may compile on Solaris derived systems (for instance SmartOS) but our support for this platform isbest effort and Redis is not guaranteed to work as well as on Linux, OSX, and *BSD.

To build Redis with all the data structures (including JSON, time series, Bloom filter, cuckoo filter, count-min sketch, top-k, and t-digest) and with Redis Query Engine, make sure first that all the prerequisites are installed (see build instructions above, per operating system). You need to use the following flag in the make command:

make BUILD_WITH_MODULES=yes

To build Redis with just the core data structures, use:

make

To build with TLS support, you need OpenSSL development libraries (e.g. libssl-dev on Debian/Ubuntu) and the following flag in the make command:

make BUILD_TLS=yes

To build with systemd support, you need systemd development libraries (such as libsystemd-dev on Debian/Ubuntu or systemd-devel on CentOS), and the following flag:

make USE_SYSTEMD=yes

To append a suffix to Redis program names, add the following flag:

make PROG_SUFFIX="-alt"

You can build a 32 bit Redis binary using:

make 32bit

After building Redis, it is a good idea to test it using:

maketest

If TLS is built, running the tests with TLS enabled (you will needtcl-tls installed):

./utils/gen-test-certs.sh./runtest --tls

Redis has some dependencies which are included in thedeps directory.make does not automatically rebuild dependencies even if something in the source code of dependencies changes.

When you update the source code withgit pull or when code inside the dependencies tree is modified in any other way, make sure to use the following command in order to really clean everything and rebuild from scratch:

make distclean

This will clean: jemalloc, lua, hiredis, linenoise and other dependencies.

Also, if you force certain build options like 32bit target, no C compiler optimizations (for debugging purposes), and other similar build time options, those options are cached indefinitely until you issue amake distcleancommand.

If after building Redis with a 32 bit target you need to rebuild itwith a 64 bit target, or the other way around, you need to perform amake distclean in the root directory of the Redis distribution.

In case of build errors when trying to build a 32 bit binary of Redis, try the following steps:

• Install the package libc6-dev-i386 (also try g++-multilib).
• Try using the following command line instead ofmake 32bit:make CFLAGS="-m32 -march=native" LDFLAGS="-m32"

Selecting a non-default memory allocator when building Redis is done by setting theMALLOC environment variable. Redis is compiled and linked against libc malloc by default, except for jemalloc being the default on Linux systems. This default was picked because jemalloc has proven to have fewer fragmentation problems than libc malloc.

To force compiling against libc malloc, use:

make MALLOC=libc

To compile against jemalloc on Mac OS X systems, use:

make MALLOC=jemalloc

By default, Redis will build using the POSIX clock_gettime function as the monotonic clock source. On most modern systems, the internal processor clock can be used to improve performance. Cautions can be found here:http://oliveryang.net/2015/09/pitfalls-of-TSC-usage/

To build with support for the processor's internal instruction clock, use:

make CFLAGS="-DUSE_PROCESSOR_CLOCK"

Redis will build with a user-friendly colorized output by default.If you want to see a more verbose output, use the following:

make V=1

Please consult theTLS.md file for more information on how to use Redis with TLS.
