Redis is more powerful than memcache as a cache database: (1) More data types are supported, (2) Redis persistence.

I. How the Dump.rdb file was generated

When the Redis service is hung up, data is automatically backed up locally, depending on the Redis configuration file.

The DUMP.RDB is automatically generated by the Redis server.

By default, the Redis server program automatically iterates through the database every once in a while and writes memory snapshots in a file called "Dump.rdb", a persistence mechanism called snapshot. With snapshot, if the server goes down and the Redis server program restarts, Redis automatically loads the DUMP.RDB and restores the database to the last snapshot state.

How often do you do it once? The path and file name of the Snapshot,snapshot file, which you can specify in the Redis config file.

Second, what is the persistence of Redis

Redis provides different levels of persistence:

(1) RDB persistence mode: Ability to snapshot your data at specified intervals.

(2) aof persistence mode: Each operation to the server, when the server restarts the time to re-execute these commands to restore the original data, the AOF command appends the Redis protocol to save each write operation to the end of the file. Redis also enables background rewriting of aof files to make the aof file less bulky.

(3) If you only want your data to exist when the server is running, you can not use any persistence mode.

(4) You can also open both of these persistence modes at the same time. When the Redis service restarts, it will load the aof file to restore the original data, since the data set saved by the AoF file is generally more complete than the data set saved by the Rdb file.

Iii. What is the RDB for Redis

The RDB writes a snapshot of the in-memory dataset to disk, which is the snapshot snapshot, within a specified time interval .

It recovers when the snapshot files are written directly into memory, and Redis creates (fork) a child process for persistence, writes the data to a temporary file, and the persistence process ends with the temporary file replaced with a file that is persisted.

Throughout the process, the main process is not performing any IO operations, which ensures very high performance. If large-scale data recovery is required and the integrity of the data recovery is not sensitive, the RDB approach is more efficient than the AOF approach. 、

The disadvantage of Redis is that the last persisted data may be lost.

4.1 How to trigger an RDB snapshot

Default snapshot configuration in a configuration file

Save 160 10000

The above meaning means:

(1) If at least one key is changed, the save operation is performed after 900 seconds (15 minutes)

(2) If at least 10 keys are changed, the save operation is performed after 300 seconds (5 minutes)

(3) If at least 10,000 keys are changed, the save operation is performed after 60 seconds (1 minutes)

Command Save: Save, whatever

The command Bgsave:redis asynchronously snapshot operations in the background, while the snapshot can also respond to client requests.

4.2 The default Rdb method holds the Dump.rdb file, and recovery recognition is also DUMP.RDB

4.3stop-writes-on-bgsave-error Yes

If an error occurs in the background save to disk, the write operation is stopped, and the RDB file is compressed using LZF, which consumes the CPU, but can reduce disk usage.

4.4rdbcompression Yes

when you save an RDB and load an RDB file, the checksum prevents errors, but it takes about 10% performance to shut down and improve performance.

4.5rdbchecksum Yes

Exported RDB file name

4.6dbfilename Dump.rdb

set the working directory, the Rdb file will be written to the directory , append only file will be stored in the directory

4.7dir./

Redis will automatically save the snapshot to disk or call Bgsave, which is done by the background process, the other clients can read and write the Redis service, the background to save the snapshot to disk will consume a lot of memory.

(ii) Persistence of AOF (append-only file) mode

Another way is to increment the way that will cause data to change the operation, persist to the file, restart Redis, by Operation Command, restore the data.

Each time the write command is executed, the data is written to Server.aofbuf.

# # More details please check the following article:# http://antirez.com/post/redis-persistence-demystified.html# # If unsure, use"Everysec". # Appendfsync alwaysappendfsync everysec# Appendfsync no# when the AOF fsync policy was set to always or ever Ysec, and a background# saving process (a background save or AOF log background rewriting) is# performing a lot of I/o against the disk, in some Linux configurations# Redis may block tooLongOn the Fsync () call. Note that there is no fix for#  ThisCurrently, as even performing fsyncincha different thread would block# our synchronous write (2) call.

When configured as always, each time the data in the SERVER.AOFBUF is written to a file, it is returned to the client, which guarantees that the data is not lost, but frequent IO operations can degrade performance.

Everysec writes once per second, which can lose operations within one second.

V. Advantages of Redis

(1) Suitable for large-scale data recovery

(2) The data integrity and consistency requirements are not high

Vi. shortcomings of Redis

(1) Make a backup at a certain interval, so if Redis accidentally hangs up, it loses all modifications after the last snapshot.

(2) Fork, the data in memory is cloned, roughly twice times the expansion of the need to consider
