After Debian, Apache HTTP Server, and PostgreSQL my favourite best in class greatly appreciated long used webdev software is Redis. I sincerely ‘heart’ antirez (Salvatore Sanfilippo); the man is a true OS rockstar; extremely approachable, engaging, and pleasant.
All of which leads into his announcement that
Redis 6 RC1 [antirez.com] is available :)
Note: Redis 6 GA (General Availability) is expected to be released in three to six months.
I don’t know how many WebmasterWorld members use Redis but I find it an increasingly valuable tool. Much of what/how I do bot identification/mitigation and contextual delivery would be difficult/impractical/impossible for a sole WebDev without it.
Note: I’ve promised myself that I won’t play with new possibilities dancing in my head until the New Year... holidays are holidays or something...
