redis-deep

Deep-dives Redis: 8 data structures with use cases, Redlock distributed locking, sliding window rate limiting via sorted sets, pub/sub patterns, streams for event logs, pipeline batching, keyspace notifications, eviction policies, Cluster vs Sentinel. For caching, locks, rate limiting, real-time features.

Redis Deep Dive

When to Use This Skill

Implementing distributed locking (Redlock)

Building rate limiters with sliding windows

Designing pub/sub for real-time features

Using Redis Streams for event log

Choosing memory eviction policy

Core Principles

Redis is not a database for data you cannot afford to lose — AOF/RDB persistence is best-effort; design for Redis to be empty

One connection per operation is wasteful — use pipelining for batch operations (10× throughput improvement)

Key naming convention is critical — resource:id:field prevents collisions and enables pattern scanning

TTL everything — unbounded keys accumulate until OOM; if no TTL makes sense, use a large one (7 days)

Redlock requires majority quorum — N/2+1 nodes must confirm; never use single-node lock for distributed coordination
