Among all the in-memory cache stores available the popular one is Redis. Though Redis is extremely simple to install for standalone KV store, but to host redis-as-a-service in your cloud it becomes complex. Creating, administering , monitoring, clustering and metering 1000s of instance of redis server is extremely complex Along with Mesos, a thin high performing framework exclusively written for redis will not only retain the redis’s inherent performance but also simplifies these problems to a large extent. Huawei in collaboration with the community recently open sourced a framework for Redis on Mesos which is available on github https://github.com/mesos/mr-redis This presentation will focus on that framework and a detailed discussion on framework’s design & its future plans. A demo will also be shown by using this framework how easy to create 1000s of redis service instances in less than a minute by using Mesos. The presentation will also briefly touch on the cloudfoundry framework for mesos.
