Redis is an open source (BSD-licensed), in-memory, data structure store, used as database, cache and message broker.

In this talk you will learn about the unique Redis functions and data structures that form an important part of most web scale applications. You will also see examples of how Redis performs under the challenges created by high speed data interactions; plus you will have the opportunity to download the demos and try them for yourself.
