Redis but Faster With Roman Gershman
Redis is consistently one of the most beloved pieces of infrastructure for developers. And in the last few years, we've seen a number of new Redis-compatible projects that aim to improve on the core of Redis in some way.

He did a stint on the ElastiCache team at AWS but struck off on his own to make a new, faster version of Redis. In this episode, we talk through the improvements that Dragonfly makes to Redis and why it matters to high-scale users. We go through the different needs and requirements of...
