What problem does it solve?

Redis is a versatile in-memory data store; this skill consolidates best practices for caching, session management, pub/sub messaging, and data structures to improve performance and correctness in backend services.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Caching patterns with TTL and invalidation strategies to reduce database load.
• Session management and ephemeral data handling for scalable web apps.
• Pub/Sub messaging and real-time event distribution across microservices.
• Data structure usage examples (hashes, lists, sets, streams) for common patterns.

Quick Start

Connect to a Redis instance, create a client, and implement a simple cache-with-ttl example to validate setup.
