Can Redis be used as a primary database? [video](youtube.com)

Completely agree about the Object-relational mismatch. The general term "Impedance Mismatch" is used in several industries to mean the loss in efficiency due to increase in complexity.

"Object-Relational Impedance Mismatch"[1] is been around for decades. Martin Fowler[2] and others who are deeply technical (think Sr. architects, CTOs) use this all the time. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

Good question. Redis Timeseries is just a different data structure and works alongside other data structures so it wont add too much Impedance when compared to having different data in different systems. On the other hand, imagine you used

I think the article is mainly attempting to provide you with a tool to calculate complexity. You can add additional columns to the calculator and make it your own for your needs. It's been used by some companies internally to compare

It's just a tool to calculate complexity. You don't need to use Redis or Kafka or any thing used in the article. If Kafka or CosmosDB or something else works better, that's great too.

Totally agree. Re: Zookeeper, Kafka are apparently going towards removing Zookeeper. The goal is to give you a calculator to measure complexity. You can totally add it to your calculation. You can certainly overlay cost to the calculator by

Can you give me a concrete example of were you'd contort if you were to use Redis versus Postgres? BTW, I'm just trying to really find an actual proof as opposed to mere anecdotal knowledge.

I understand that Postgres is an awesome DB. But my point is, why not use Redis especially when it comes with RedisJSON, RediSearch, RedisGraph, etc and gets most of the things done without any SQL. Why should we stick to the traditional ap

I'm looking at a retail store app. Redis comes with RedisJSON, Search and other modules to model it. So why not use it?

Can you replace Postgres with Redis (for some usecases)?

Hi there, I agree that traditionally (and even now) that's how cache works. But the system like Redis that provides that service has gotten much more powerful over the years and so you can use it as a traditional Db. The car efficiency

Do you mean there is some kind of memory leak? Maybe you should try upgrading to the latest Redis. It's a lot more feature rich and powerful these days.

I don't think that's the spirit of that blog you pointed out. Redis is quite different from traditional databases. And so things work differently and some features may be important in RDBMS, might not be that useful in Redis becau

You, if you look at very large customers of ElastiCache or Redis, or just companies like Twitter, they all use a very large Redis clusters to store Terabytes of data. You can also use"Redis on Flash" and save a lot of money when c

What are your thoughts on this *new* architecture. It's not what it sounds like.

by node-bayarea 5y ago
I post all sorts of stuff if you look into the complete history. The blog legitimately identifies and highlights the issues that a ton of security experts have already identified for years and written about. May I ask you to un-flag it?

+1. Redis is a great option, you can use other similar services, but just dont use JWT for something that it's not meant for.

This is exactly the point of the blog. If you are using JWT + Workarounds to make it secure, then you'll loose all the benefits. This is why virtually no one in fin-tech use JWT.
