Brief Summary

This course teaches you how to harness the power of Redis, a top-tier in-memory database. You'll explore data types and commands, learn to use Redis with PHP and Python, and discover what makes Redis stand out from other databases like MongoDB and CouchDB.

Key Points

  • Redis is a powerful in-memory database used by top web companies.
  • It handles data better than memcached and can process vast amounts of data.
  • You can use Redis for real-time applications like chat logging and scoreboards.
  • The course covers data types, commands, and how to use Redis with PHP and Python.
  • Familiarity with a terminal is needed, and using Linux is highly encouraged.

Learning Outcomes

  • Understand the basics of NoSQL databases and the unique features of Redis.
  • Get hands-on experience using Redis commands and data types.
  • Integrate Redis with PHP and Python for real-world applications.
  • Gain confidence in using terminal commands and Redis CLI.
  • Learn practical uses of Redis in real-time applications.

About This Course

Learn how to use the super powerful in-memory database used by the top web companies.

Redis is a powerful in-memory database. You could liken it to memcached yet with better data type handling. You may find yourself using Redis as a medium to process vast amounts of data.

Other examples may be using Redis for real-time chat logging, scoreboards, or simply a powerful caching engine. You will need to be familiar with a terminal to take this course. I recommend GitSCM for Windows, or Terminator for Linux,

This series is simple, we go through the Data Type and Commands, and you follow by example. We'll also integrate a PHP and Python client to show how easy it is to use as an abstracted adapter in two popular languages.

It's highly encouraged you use SSH or Linux to use the Redis CLI. The Windows binary works but it can be a bit unstable.

This course will guide you through the commands (Not every single one), but it will get you started so that it makes sense. This course will take around 2 - 3 weeks to fully understand the material and practice it.

  • Learn a NoSQL Database

  • Learn Why Redis Is Different than Mongo/Couch/Cassandra/Etc.

  • Learn to Easily use Redis via the Client

Hello! My name is Jesse. I was born in Michigan, but I've been living in Central Florida the past 10 years. I've been programming since I was 12. Beginning with QBasic in school, IRC Scripting at home, and HTML in Netscape Navigator on weekends. In those days I had to "View Source" to figure out how to do anything! I...

Very good explanations about the Redis tool. Course is completely independent from programming languages, so short hints about PHP and Python are no problem for everyone. Thanks for uploading the course. :)

Il corso è adatto a me, ma l'istruttore è poco coinvolgente e dispersivo

yeah! The course tutorial was pretty good and understandable because the trainer used the terminals as well as py editor to work on. it would have been great if the trainer would have showed more about how to create an application in python to save data in redis as well.

It is a bit slow going with multiple pauses on my end due to the slightly different setup of redis on my raspberry pi and using the various tools and commands he employs in the lesson. Some commands he uses, need a slightly different syntax as what he types, but a quick google search seems to solve those discrepancies. I'm not really sure how close I am to actually using what I learn to apply to my tasks in Azure Redis Cache, but I like to get a good foundation for the tools that or languages prior to learning about my exact application or use case. So far the instructor is doing a great job in providing that foundation.

Good Concise Intro and Overview of Redis DB Client and Commands. Happy the Instructor Used PHP and Python for Programming Examples for APIs to Redis.
