My Redis crash course

Redis is an in memory data store often used as cache.

Install Redis: 
sudo apt install redis-server
Check status: 
sudo systemctl status redis
Launch Redis CLI: 
redis-cli
Set a key: 
SET mykey "hello"
Get a key: 
GET mykey
Set with expiration: 
SET tempkey "bye" EX 60
Check keys: 
KEYS *
Redis is extremely fast because it stores data in memory. It is perfect for caching sessions or frequently accessed data.

Keep in mind memory usage grows with data size.

To insert a document: db.users.insertOne({ name: "John", email: "[john@example.com](mailto:john@example.com)", age: 30 }) To find documents: db.users.find() To pretty print results: db.users.find().pretty() To update a docum...
