Introduction

KeyDB is an open-source database system that provides a faster alternative to Redis. It's designed to tackle heavy workloads, boasting a benchmark of over 1 million operations per second on a single node. With its multi-threaded architecture, KeyDB delivers superior performance compared to Redis on a per-node basis. Leveraging the power of in-memory data storage, it offers sub-millisecond latencies to swiftly serve up data.

In Depth Cluster Tutorial | KeyDB - The Faster Redis Alternative
This document is a gentle introduction to KeyDB Cluster, that does not use difficult to understand concepts of distributed systems. It provides

Features

The software supports a rich spectrum of data structures including strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, bitmaps, hyperloglogs, geospatial indexes and streams. It's fully compatible with Redis & Elasticache and equipped with an advanced architecture that supplies more throughput while introducing powerful new features.

KeyDB offers scalability at its best. You can enhance throughput by adding more replica nodes or active-replica nodes. Alternatively, you can partition the data in a sharded cluster for improved resource management. Built with modern web applications in mind, KeyDB serves as your versatile cache and database solution.
