[Hidden-tech] Learning Redis

[Robert Archer]

If you are using Django for python, there is a library called Huey that allows key/value stores on Redis, and is pretty easy to set up.  You’ll still need the URI information, because that is how any library will know where to access the Redis store.

However, it seems to be quite complex, and there are client libraries for the other features I'm using (S3 and Lambda), so I am hoping to find something equally straightforward for Redis.

I have no idea at all how to get started. I have done many web searches and have read all the AWS documentation I can find. I have found much information on configuration and setup, as well as information about Redis syntax (e.g., HSET, INCR) but nothing about APIs for actually making calls to execute these commands.  Stack Exchange has informed me that this type of problem is not appropriate there.
