ENT224: Redis Enterprise for Large-Scale Deployment Dec 01, 2017

Show notes

C.H. Robinson, Intuit, and Scopely hold a fireside chat with Redis Labs' CMO to discuss the challenges of deploying large-scale applications that need to support personalized user experiences based on real-time insights. The architects from these companies share how Redis Enterprise operates as the primary datastore and tackles the issues of maintaining consistency in geo-distributed deployments, ingests massive amounts of data while executing hybrid transactions-analytics functions, and balances workloads between RAM and SSDs while performing hundreds of thousands of operations per second with sub-millisecond latency. In this business-technical session, you learn about diverse use cases and capabilities of Redis, a highly popular in-memory NoSQL database, including job and queue management, machine learning, streaming, search, geo-spatial indexing, fast data ingest, and high speed transactions.
