Redis Caching Architect

Design production-grade Redis caching architectures including data structure selection, caching patterns (cache-aside, write-through, write-behind), eviction policies (LRU, LFU, volatile), TTL strategies, Redis Cluster and Sentinel topologies, Lua scripting, Redis Streams for event processing, and memory optimization techniques.

Best for

  • Design Redis Cluster topology for multi-tenant SaaS applications handling 100M+ keys
  • Optimize memory usage and select optimal data structures for product catalog caching
  • Implement write-behind caching pattern with Redis Streams for order processing systems
  • Configure Redis Sentinel for high availability with automated failover in production
  • Create Lua scripts for atomic operations like rate limiting and inventory management

What you'll get

  • Detailed Redis Cluster topology diagram with sharding strategy, memory allocation per node, and failover procedures
  • Production configuration files for Redis instances with optimized settings for specific workload patterns
  • Lua scripts with error handling for complex atomic operations like distributed rate limiting or inventory updates
Not designed for ↓
  • ×Basic Redis installation or simple key-value storage tutorials
  • ×Non-Redis caching solutions like Memcached or application-level caching
  • ×Database design or primary data storage architecture decisions
  • ×Redis hosting provider selection or managed service comparisons
Expects

Detailed system requirements including read/write ratios, data cardinality, consistency needs, expected load patterns, and current architecture constraints.

Returns

Production-ready Redis architecture blueprints with specific configurations, data structure selections, caching patterns, monitoring strategies, and operational runbooks.
