Deep Dive
High-Speed Caching with Redis
Redis (Remote Dictionary Server) is an open-source data structure store that runs in RAM. Capable of millions of operations per second, Redis is ideal for caching database queries, managing sessions and real-time communication with pub/sub patterns.
In Detartech projects we deploy Redis across multiple layers. We store API responses and database queries with TTL-based caching, reducing database load by 60-80% for repeated queries. We manage task queues via the BullMQ library, processing background tasks such as email sending, report generation and webhook delivery asynchronously. We also prefer Redis for rate limiting and distributed lock implementations.
