Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Saman. As one of the most-loved databases by developers, the list of popular applications that rely on Redis today is mind-boggling, and we always appreciate first-person perspectives from our customers who are on the front lines of implementing Redis in their application stack. So, we recently sat down with Ted Knudsen, CTO at Smartwaiver (and a long time fan of Redis databases). Smartwaiver is an online waiver solution that converts release-of-liability waivers into interactive, digital documents. Thousands of businesses rely on Smartwaiver to streamline their operations and make the waiver signing process secure, simple, fast and ... Read More

Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Tague Griffith. Last month, Redis Labs was a sponsor of the third HSHacks Hackathon.     Teams came from all over the San Francisco Bay Area to spend 24 hours turning their ideas into working applications.  Although the teams worked late into the night, there was still time for some fun and games and even a few tutorials on some of the latest technology. Our developer relations team had a blast spending the day working with various teams on everything from debugging projects to helping the students find better algorithms to solve their problems.  We even got a ...

Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Jay Johnson. Utilizing a machine learning API to create a scalable model artifact pipeline Managing large, pre-trained predictive models across an organization and ensuring the same version is in production can be a challenge with the rapid pace of changes in the AI/machine learning space. Here, we have an approach that demonstrates how to automate building, storing, and deploying predictive models from a Remote Machine Learning Data Store hosted on Redis Labs. This approach is focused on showing how DevOps CI/CD artifact pipelines can be used to build and manage machine learning model artifacts with Jupyter ... Read More

Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Keren Ouaknine. Recently, AWS announced the availability of I3 instances across 15 different regions. We were happy to be a part of their I3 instances beta program and used our own Redis Enterprise Flash (Redise Flash) technology to extensively test and benchmark the new instances before they were formally launched. The I3 SSD storage is based on NVMe technology, which theoretically should provide significantly higher throughput and much lower latency than the previous generation I2 instances (which are based on SATA SSDs). Before I get into the results of our benchmark, I’ll first cover some quick background ... Read More

Feed: Redis Labs. Author: Roshan Kumar. When I was shopping last week, I noticed a significant difference between the checkout times of Walgreens and Safeway. Both were quick to scan and bag my items, but Walgreens was able to process my chip-based credit card in a second, if not less. I pushed my card inside the reader, and immediately heard a beep. At Safeway, validating my card took about 10 seconds. Though 10 seconds doesn’t seem all that long, imagine if you were waiting in line behind eight people, all paying with credit card– just the payment processing alone would ... Read More
