You probably know Redis as a fast cache, but it's much more than that.
It's a complete database with persistence, atomic operations, and now, with Redis 8, it's getting even better.
The latest version brings major upgrades: a powerful query engine, native vector search for AI, JSON support for flexible data storage, streams for real-time event processing, and probabilistic data structures for large-scale analytics.
Redis 8 isn't just about speed—it's about smarter data handling, better scalability, and new possibilities.
In this talk, we'll explore how Redis 8 goes beyond caching and what it means for developers today.
