The most interesting thing about Redis is that it removes the impedance mismatch between in code data structures and the data store. It is doing for data stores what server side javascript does for AJAX applications. OO persistence was the first step in this direction but Redis nails the real world use cases a lot better.

It basically makes interacting with Redis look just like you're dealing with normal builtin data structures. I'm sure the equivalent exists or is just as easy to write in any language: https://github.com/amix/redis_wrap https://github.com/amix/redis_wrap
