Install redis on Ubuntu

Redis, Is an open source, BSD licensed, advanced key-Value Store. it is often referred to as a data structure server since keys can contain strings, hashes, lists, sets and sorted sets. redis is a key-value storage system. Similar to memcached, redis supports more value types, including string, list, and set), zset (sorted set -- ordered set), and hashs (hash type ). These data types support push/pop, Add/Remove, Intersection Set and difference set, and more abundant operations, and these operations are atomic. On this basis, redis supports sorting in different ways. Like memcached, data is cached in the memory to ensure efficiency. The difference is that redis periodically writes the updated data to the disk or writes the modification operation to the append record file, and on this basis implements master-slave (master-slave) synchronization. Redis is a high-performance Key-value database. The emergence of redis largely compensates for the shortage of key/value storage such as memcached, and can play a good complementary role in relational databases in some cases. It provides python, Ruby, Erlang, and PHP clients for ease of use.

sudo mv redis.conf /etc/redis.conf

3.2 initialize the user and Log Path
Before starting redis for the first time, we recommend that you create a separate user for redis and create a new data and log folder.
sudo useradd redis 
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/redis 
sudo mkdir -p /var/log/redis 
sudo chown redis.redis /var/lib/redis 
sudo chown redis.redis /var/log/redis

Note: redis is a new user. You can also use the default user of the current system (for example:Homer), You need to modify sudo chown.Homer. Redis/var/lib/redis

3.3 set Automatic startup and automatic shutdown
update-rc.d redis-server defaults
