Redis is an open source, in-memory data structure, key-value store, used as a database, cache and message broker. It's super fast and it can be used for a lot of cool things. In this course, we will practically take a look at what Redis is, and how you can use it with Node.js

There are many npm modules that connect Node.js with Redis. We’ll be focusing on redis-cli and ioredis, for interacting with Redis and understanding why we need it.

Some of many concepts discussed in the interactive course:

1. What is Redis?
2. Strings and integers in redis
3. Key-value pairs
4. Sets and lists
5. Common operations with redis
6. Expiring keys
7. Redis single threaded
8. Projects built with Redis + Node.js
