Programming Redis administration topics

Man Redis features and operational modes provide additional capabilities and restrictions when you are programming applications for your customers and stakeholders. As we have seen, adding Lua scripts to our application transfers even more business logic and data manipulation to the Redis instance, but with important restrictions and trade-offs. In the next sections, we'll do a tour of the administrative features of Redis that are pertinent to programming applications. First, we'll look at Redis's replication solution with Master-Slave instances, and then Redis transaction support and see how each of these features offer opportunities and trade-offs in our applications that have operational implications.

Master-Slave replication

A fundamental administrative topic to consider when programming with Redis is the decision about when to use Master/Slave replication for added stability, scaling, and performance, Redis data for application use...
