No Race Condition every command in redis is atomic use
redis as a incremental counter “There are very few systems that support an “increment and return” operation, and Redis is one of them (Oracle sequences are another).” http://nateware.com/2010/02/18/an-atomic-rant/
No Race Condition every command in redis is atomic Combine

Did I make any changes to MySQL? NO It’s still
our main database
Did I solve the problem? YES solve complex queries via
Redis data structure
Happy Database Add Redis to stack
How? Sorted Set: Per user notification String: API request limiter
String, List: Request logging List: Job Queue
Real World = Risk Persistence Replication Sharding
Persistence RDB AOF
RDB • Snapshot • Compact • .rdb file can be
transfered to other backup system • Chances to lose data
AOF • logs of every write operation • durable •
bigger file size
You want a degree of safety comparable to PostgreSQL? Just
use BOTH
Replication Master Slave Slave Slave
Replication • Read-only salves • Save on slaves
Sharding • Memory is limited • Split data into multiple
redis servers
Presharding Single Machine Redis instance Redis instance Redis instance Redis
