Salvatore Sanfilippo introduces the technology, data structures and the fundamental concepts behind Redis. Then SpringSource engineer, Costin Leau, discusses the Redis support in Spring Data and shows how easy it is to get started and scale out into a cloud environment such as Cloud Foundry.
Redis is an open source, advanced key-value store known for its excellent performance, its small footprint and embed-ability. The Spring Data project makes it easier to build Spring-powered applications that use new data access technologies such as non-relational “NOSQL” databases and cloud based data services.
