When to Use RDB
RDB is suitable when you need point-in-time backups, want efficient disk space usage, and are willing to tolerate the potential data loss between snapshots. For additional durability and granular recovery, consider using RDB in combination with the AOF (Append-Only File) persistence mechanism.
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.
