Our use of Redis for caching has somewhat reduced and we’re now using Memcached a lot more aggressively than we were a year ago.
Could you say why you decided to migrate from Redis to Memcached for caching?
- sim0n 15y agoA lot of the caching we're doing is just plain key/value and so it was easier to just increase our usage of Memcached (we were already using Memcached at the time). If we need to store more complex structures in memory (e.g. lists) then Redis will be high on the list of choices. Since I wrote this piece, we've been looking in to reworking our notifications and activity feeds so there's a good possibility that we will be looking in to Redis again.
