4 min readTo set up a Docker Redis container with SSL, you will first need to create a self-signed SSL certificate for Redis. You can do this using tools like OpenSSL. Then, you need to configure the Redis server to use SSL by setting the 'tls-port' and 'tls-cert-file' and 'tls-key-file' options in the Redis configuration file.Next, you will need to create a Dockerfile for building the Redis image with the SSL configuration.

9 min readTo sync an operation between Redis and MongoDB, you can use a technique called change data capture (CDC). This involves capturing changes made to the data in MongoDB and then applying those changes to Redis in real-time.One way to implement CDC is to use a tool like Kafka or Debezium to capture changes in MongoDB and then write them to Redis. Another approach is to write custom code that listens for changes in MongoDB and updates Redis accordingly.

5 min readIn Redis, you can update dependent key values by using the concept of transactions with the help of the MULTI and EXEC commands.First, you need to start a transaction by using the MULTI command. This command tells Redis that a series of commands needs to be executed atomically.Next, you can update the dependent key values by using regular Redis commands like SET, GET, INCR, etc.Once you have updated all the dependent key values, you can commit the transaction by using the EXEC command.

4 min readRedis supports up to 32,767 channels for publishing and subscribing using the Pub/Sub feature. This means that clients can subscribe to this many different channels concurrently, allowing for efficient and scalable messaging between clients and servers.[rating:ce821fa8-0cbe-48d4-a522-252e94dac366]What is the purpose of pub/sub channels in Redis?The purpose of pub/sub channels in Redis is to provide a messaging system where clients can subscribe to and receive messages from different channels.

7 min readTo implement auto-refresh with Redis cache, you can use Redis' built-in features such as keyspace notifications or expiration policies. By setting a time-to-live (TTL) for your cached data and configuring Redis to automatically refresh the data when it expires, you can ensure that your cache remains up-to-date without manual intervention. Keyspace notifications can notify your application when a specific key's value changes, allowing you to refresh the cache accordingly.
-
5 min readWhen using the scan_iter() function in Redis, you can exclude keys by providing a pattern to match keys that should be excluded. This pattern should be passed as an argument to the function. For example, if you want to exclude keys that start with "foo", you can pass the pattern "foo*" to scan_iter(). This will ensure that only keys that do not match the pattern will be returned by the iterator.
-
3 min readTo check if a key exists in Redis, you can use the EXISTS command. This command returns 1 if the key exists and 0 if it does not. You simply need to pass the key as an argument to the EXISTS command to determine its existence in the Redis database.[rating:ce821fa8-0cbe-48d4-a522-252e94dac366]What is the impact of key collisions on checking if a key exists in Redis?Key collisions in Redis can impact the performance of checking if a key exists in the database.

4 min readTo store JSON data in Redis, you can convert the JSON data into a string using a JSON serialization library (e.g. JSON.stringify in JavaScript) before saving it to Redis. Once converted into a string, you can set the JSON data as a value for a specific key in Redis using the SET command. When retrieving the JSON data from Redis, you can use the GET command to retrieve the string value and then parse it back into JSON using a JSON parsing library (e.g. JSON.parse in JavaScript).
-
4 min readTo search by value in Redis, you can use the SCAN command along with the MATCH option to filter by a specific value. This command will scan the keyspace and return keys that match the specified pattern. Additionally, you can use the KEYS command to search for keys that contain a specific value. However, keep in mind that searching by value in Redis can be inefficient as Redis is optimized for fast key-based lookups rather than value-based searches.
-
5 min readTo switch from using the hmset() command to the hset() command in Redis, you need to modify your code to set individual fields in a hash rather than set multiple fields at once. The hmset() command allows you to set multiple key-value pairs in a hash, while the hset() command allows you to set a single field-value pair in a hash.
-
6 min readTo install a Redis certificate, you need to place it in the directory specified by the Redis configuration file. By default, this would be the "ssl_cert_file" parameter in the Redis configuration file. You can update this parameter with the path to your certificate file. Make sure permissions are set correctly so that Redis can access the certificate file. Once the certificate is installed, you may need to restart the Redis server for the changes to take effect.
-
7 min readTo mock Redis session in Python Flask, you can use the redislite package to create an in-memory Redis server for testing purposes. This package allows you to simulate a Redis server without actually having to connect to a real Redis instance. You can then use this simulated Redis server in your tests to interact with the session data.First, you need to install the redislite package by running pip install redislite in your terminal.
