Redis for Cache, Sessions & Rate Limiting
An in-memory layer for fast lookups, session storage, and abuse protection — keeps your backend responsive under real-world traffic.
What Redis is for
A single Redis container can absorb most of the load that would otherwise hammer your database, host every active user session, and rate-limit abusive clients before they reach your application code.
What we configure
- Cache layer — for expensive reads, with versioned keys for safe deploys
- Sessions — replacing stateful server affinity with stateless backend replicas
- Rate limiting — sliding-window counters with
INCR+EXPIRE, atomic and lightning fast - Pub/sub — for cross-replica invalidation events
- Persistence — AOF for crash recovery, RDB for backups
- Eviction policy —
allkeys-lruso memory stays bounded even if a bug causes runaway key growth
