Application Level Caching I was recently asked about why we are using Redis in a solution and thought I would share the reasonings here. The question really had more to do with distributed cache than Redis itself. The uses here could just as well apply to another similar service, such as:
Memcached Redis Dragonfly KeyDB CouchDB, MongoDB or other no-sql/document db While some of these offer more than just distributed in-memory data store, that is the focused use here.
