Disadvantages of Snapshotting
- Potential Data Loss: Data between snapshots can be lost if Redis crashes before saving the snapshot.
- Non-Real-Time Backup: Snapshots are point-in-time backups and do not provide real-time data protection.
Complete tutorial on Backup in Redis
A Redis backup is a copy of the Redis dataset that is saved to a separate location, typically on disk, to provide a means of data recovery.
- Redis provides several commands and mechanisms to perform backups, including snapshots and persistence options.
- While Redis is known for its high performance and low latency, it’s important to have a backup strategy in place to ensure data durability and recoverability in case of data loss or system failures.
