Redis is an open-source in-memory data structure store which can be used as a database, cache, and message broker.
Redis supports multiple data structures and can perform around 110,000 sets per second and about 81000 gets per second.
Redis can be considered as a mix of MongoDB and Memcached this is why it provides rich datatypes support, caching, and disk persistence.
