Running Redis on the Raspberry Pi
In this tutorial, we will be showing you how to install and run the Redis server on the Raspberry Pi. Redis is an open-source, free and super-fast memory data store. With a low memory and CPU footprint, it is excellent on ARM devices like the Pi.
Redis is a fast, powerful data store that stores all of its data within memory. Storing data in memory allows the server to fetch and store data incredibly fast.
The Raspberry Pi is a fantastic device for Redis since it has low memory and CPU footprint. Basically, this means that Redis can make the most of the Pi’s hardware.
You can even run this server software on a tiny device such as the Raspberry Pi Zero. However, if you plan on dealing with a ton of data, the more memory and CPU cores the better.
The Redis team officially tests their software on the Pi, so you can be assured that the software will run well for its limited hardware.
If you are using a Raspberry Pi that has more than 2GB of memory, we recommend you use a 64-bit OS for the best experience.
