NDC London 2021 (Remote)
When you are working with Redis for your write-intensive workloads, Redis Cluster is your friend. It gives you a built-in way to partition your data across instances to allow you to scale your writes without being bound to how much load a single instance can handle. However, data partitioning is always a challenge and Redis Cluster’s approach is no exception to that. At Deliveroo, we are using Redis Cluster in anger, for handing write intensive workloads (e.g. one use case has 10K writes per seconds, while simultaneously handling 300K reads per seconds). During the time we have been using Redis Cluster, we have gained learnings on how the basics of Redis sharding works, how upfront design choices can have tremendous impact on your performance to how resharding is handled both on the Redis Cluster side as well as through the Redis clients. In this session, I would like to share those invaluable learnings based on our battle-tested, real world experiences. At the end of the session, you should have a far better idea on how you can scale Redis for your write intensive workloads, and what type of surprises might be waiting for you.
