Paperback. What if Redis could do much more than simply cache data?How do you choose the right data structure? How can you make applications faster, manage sessions, process real-time events, secure your data, and prepare Redis for production workloads? And what role can Redis play in modern search and AI applications?Modern Redis for Beginners provides a practical introduction to Redis while gradually taking you into the techniques used to build modern, scalable applications.You will learn how Redis works, how to model data with strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, streams, JSON, and other data structures, and how to select the right structure based on your application's requirements.But what happens when your application starts receiving thousands of requests?You will explore caching strategies, expiration, cache invalidation, cache stampede prevention, sessions, rate limiting, distributed locks, and performance optimization. You will also learn how persistence, transactions, concurrency, replication, high availability, backups, and clustering affect reliability.How do you connect Redis to a real application?This book shows how Redis can support Python and Node.js applications, REST APIs, background jobs, event-driven systems, notifications, and real-time workloads. You will also learn how Streams and consumer groups can be used to build reliable event-processing workflows.Security and production operations are equally important. You will learn about access control, authentication, TLS, memory management, eviction policies, monitoring, troubleshooting, and practical approaches to preparing Redis deployments for production.And what about modern AI?How can Redis support semantic search, vector retrieval, RAG, AI memory, recommendations, and context retrieval?You will explore JSON documents, search, embeddings, vector search, semantic caching, retrieval-augmented generation, and other techniques that connect Redis with modern AI-powered applications.Inside this book, you will learn how to: Understand Redis architecture and fundamental commandsDesign effective keys and data modelsChoose the right Redis data structuresBuild high-performance caching systemsManage expiration and cache invalidationImplement sessions, rate limiting, and distributed locksConfigure persistence, replication, and high availabilityUnderstand clustering, scaling, and shardingBuild event-driven systems with StreamsIntegrate Redis with Python, Node.js, and APIsApply security and access-control principlesMonitor and optimize production workloadsWork with JSON and search capabilitiesUnderstand embeddings and vector similarityBuild semantic search and RAG applicationsExplore AI memory and semantic cachingDesign practical Redis-powered architecturesWhether you are completely new to Redis or want to strengthen your backend development skills, this book focuses on understanding how Redis works, why particular techniques matter, and where they fit into real applications.Ready to move beyond basic SET and GET commands?Get Modern Redis for Beginners today and start building practical skills for caching, real-time applications, scalable systems, search, and modern AI workloads.

What if Redis could do much more than simply cache data?
How do you choose the right data structure? How can you make applications faster, manage sessions, process real-time events, secure your data, and prepare Redis for production workloads? And what role can Redis play in modern search and AI applications?
Modern Redis for Beginners provides a practical introduction to Redis while gradually taking you into the techniques used to build modern, scalable applications.
You will learn how Redis works, how to model data with strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, streams, JSON, and other data structures, and how to select the right structure based on your application's requirements.
But what happens when your application starts receiving thousands of requests?
You will explore caching strategies, expiration, cache invalidation, cache stampede prevention, sessions, rate limiting, distributed locks, and performance optimization. You will also learn how persistence, transactions, concurrency, replication, high availability, backups, and clustering affect reliability.
How do you connect Redis to a real application?
This book shows how Redis can support Python and Node.js applications, REST APIs, background jobs, event-driven systems, notifications, and real-time workloads. You will also learn how Streams and consumer groups can be used to build reliable event-processing workflows.
Security and production operations are equally important. You will learn about access control, authentication, TLS, memory management, eviction policies, monitoring, troubleshooting, and practical approaches to preparing Redis deployments for production.
And what about modern AI?
How can Redis support semantic search, vector retrieval, RAG, AI memory, recommendations, and context retrieval?
You will explore JSON documents, search, embeddings, vector search, semantic caching, retrieval-augmented generation, and other techniques that connect Redis with modern AI-powered applications.
Inside this book, you will learn how to:
-
Understand Redis architecture and fundamental commands
-
Design effective keys and data models
-
Choose the right Redis data structures
-
Build high-performance caching systems
-
Manage expiration and cache invalidation
-
Implement sessions, rate limiting, and distributed locks
-
Configure persistence, replication, and high availability
-
Understand clustering, scaling, and sharding
-
Build event-driven systems with Streams
-
Integrate Redis with Python, Node.js, and APIs
-
Apply security and access-control principles
-
Monitor and optimize production workloads
-
Work with JSON and search capabilities
-
Understand embeddings and vector similarity
-
Build semantic search and RAG applications
-
Explore AI memory and semantic caching
-
Design practical Redis-powered architectures
Whether you are completely new to Redis or want to strengthen your backend development skills, this book focuses on understanding how Redis works, why particular techniques matter, and where they fit into real applications.
