Redis Cloud Pros and Cons

Redis is one of the go to unstructured databases used as a caching tool to optimise your application's performance.

It stores your data in RAM for Faster read and write operations.

Redis Enterprise has multiple features for faster data Accessibility, Security, Performance and Loss of Data Security (Data Durability).

Features like active-active and active-passive replication ensure that data is always avalilabe in case of faliure.

Rules are easily configuralble to ensure unwanted data deletion, to take timely data dump in case of machine faliure.

Usig Redis to cache static data for your application can take off load from your database and make your application feel much faster Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Redis prioritise performance over durability, it requireses a lot of ram and its data snapshot mechanism is not that much duralble like other databases.

It also cannot build complex data relationships as it uses key value pair to store data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having used a self-hosted Redis server in a different role. We had to invest a significant amount of time and resources in maintaining those clusters, making sure they are running and performing all the time. With Redis Enterprise, we really like the Redis-as-a-Service offering. The services integrate with existing code very smoothly. It saves a lot of resources given that most of the heavy lifting is done by Redis itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been in love with this product. For a small team like ours, we don't have the bandwidth to pick more and more things to maintain. Although the pros overweighs the cons. But one thing we don't like is, it is expensive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that we don`t need to take care about the infrastracture. Automatic clustering and failover is a nice feature.

Also we like the out of a box integration with Kafka. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it`s harder for developers and devops to support redis enterprise due to learning curve, as open-source redis has less functionality.

Maybe it would be nice to have more than 3 cloud providers, like DigitalOcean. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We can cache the data using Redis Enterprise. We recently planned to rebuild our platform and opted for using this tool for data caching so that the dependency on the MySQL database would be reduced, resulting in fewer server spikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support is not that helpful if we are stuck. So, this service should be improve Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy integration, great support, easy to use and built in basic ui monitoring Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not really redis. They have different features. For example: No support for redis cluster which is a big problem and their alternative is not supported by redis clients in Nodejs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The way redis is useful in the recent time application is really next level stuff. The ram usage and the ability to have fast transfer mechanism and store in cache is best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity and tool is little old style feel to have in use. The GUI based version can bring it up to next level in terms of using it further. Other than that everything is lit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be used for anything which is related to data such as streaming,storing, cache , message passing etc . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't support ad-hoc query processing. It supports command not query language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the way it scales and handles the concurrent request loads, This makes our application so fast and it's a must-have tech stack for all applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very expensive when we need to handle large data sets in the cache. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the Caching Speed, Simplicity of usage, and Multi-tier architecture provided by the Redis services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As of now, I've not got into any trouble so no dislikes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
