Redis Day Bangalore 2020 was a whirlwind experience. This is a brief summary of the two days. The official home for Redis Day Bangalore - https://connect.redislabs.com/redisdaybangalore

    • Hands-on session on Creating streams.
    • Creating consumer groups
  2. Redis Data Modeling & Patterns
    • Sets
    • Sorted Sets
    • Bit field manipulation - Using Bits to record events in per min/per day
  3. Redis Clustering
    • Hashing to divide the keys among the Redis nodes
    • Using Redis Open source cluster
    • Comparison to Redis Enterprise
  4. RedisTimeSeries OR RediSearch
    • Introduction to RedisTimeSeries
    • Creating RedisTimeSeries
