Redis
The in-memory layer behind fast, real-time features
What it is
Redis is an in-memory data store commonly used for caching, session storage, and real-time features like pub/sub messaging.
Why it matters
Reading from memory instead of disk-backed databases is dramatically faster, which matters for caching frequently-accessed data and powering real-time features like live location updates or notifications.
Where we use it
For caching, session management, and real-time data flows such as live GPS position updates or notification delivery.
