Introduction to 1.Redis and Windows installation

Redis stores data in a dictionary structure and currently supports key-value types including: String type, hash type, list type, collection type, ordered collection type

All data in the Redis database is stored in memory and also provides support for persistence

Redis is not only doing database development, but also being used as a cache system, queue system and so on.

Redis officially does not provide a version of Windows, and Microsoft has opened another branch to support the Windows version of Redis.

The Redis open source address on Windows is: Https://github.com/MicrosoftArchive/redis

3. Installation

CMD into the decompression directory, run the command:

Redis-server.exe redis.windows.conf--maxmemory 200M

4. Testing

Open the Redis-cli.exe under the unpacked directory

If you set a redis password, you need to execute the auth password command, otherwise you will be prompted (error) Noauth authentication required.

5. Place Redis in Windows services

Also enter the unzip directory, execute the command
