Read MoreThis course provides technical staff with a comprehensive introduction to the Redis key/value platform. The course begins with an overview of the architecture and operation of Redis. Each student will setup and configure their own Redis instance for testing. Redis data structure server features are examined in detail including a comprehensive examination of the various Redis data types. Example Redis clients are constructed in class and lab sessions using several languages, demonstrating a wide range of Redis commands and best practices. Optimal memory use is discussed in the context of key eviction schemes and distribution. Transactions, replication and high availability models are examined along with Redis security features. Examples and labs make use of Python, Ruby and JavaScript, it is helpful if students are familiar with at least one of these. The course also introduces the Redis Lua scripting interpreter and demonstrates it use and benefits.
