Redis was widely used in many companies for the sake of rich data structures, low latency, and high performance. However, every coin has two sides, Redis data was stored in memory which the cost of memory was relatively expensive to the disk, as well as the capacity was limited. So we build the Kvrocks which was compatible with Redis Protocol but the data was stored in the disk.

Kvrocks has the following key features:

• Redis protocol, user can use Redis client to visit the kvrocks
• Namespace, similar to Redis DB but use token per namespace
• Replication, async replication using binlog like MySQL
• High Available, supports Redis sentinel to failover when master or slave was failed

What's Next

To start with, go to server installation to run cadence locally and play it with the Redis client.
