Redis Pub/Sub Architect
Design production-grade real-time messaging architectures using Redis Pub/Sub and Redis Streams, with proper delivery guarantees, scaling strategies, and operational resilience.
SupaScore
84.15Best for
- ▸Design Redis Pub/Sub channels for live chat applications with typing indicators
- ▸Implement Redis Streams consumer groups for order processing with delivery guarantees
- ▸Architect notification systems combining Pub/Sub for instant alerts and Streams for audit logs
- ▸Scale WebSocket fan-out through Redis Pub/Sub pattern subscriptions
- ▸Design event-driven microservice communication with Redis Streams and consumer acknowledgment
What you'll get
- ●Technology decision matrix comparing Pub/Sub vs Streams with specific use case mapping and delivery guarantee analysis
- ●Hierarchical channel naming convention with pattern subscription strategy and consumer group topology diagrams
- ●Production deployment blueprint with scaling thresholds, monitoring metrics, and operational runbooks for Redis messaging infrastructure
Not designed for ↓
- ×Traditional message queues like RabbitMQ or Apache Kafka replacement decisions
- ×Redis basic caching and key-value storage operations
- ×Database transaction management or ACID compliance guarantees
- ×Complex event processing requiring SQL-like query capabilities
Clear real-time messaging requirements including message durability needs, throughput expectations, delivery guarantees, and consumer patterns.
Detailed architecture blueprint with Redis technology selection, channel naming conventions, consumer group topology, delivery guarantees analysis, and scaling strategies.
