Redis as a Scale-Out Repository

Enterprise Server supports Redis as a Scale-Out Repository (SOR). Redis is an open source in-memory data structure store. For a production environment, Micro Focus recommends using an enterprise-ready Redis server that supports Redis 5.0.3 to 6.0. [2]

To facilitate development only, an Open Source version of Redis is supplied with the development product. for Windows and UNIX, ships with a version of Redis.

Note: The Windows version of Redis that is shipped with Enterprise Developer is for testing purpose only and is not intended for use in a production environment. For a production environment, Micro Focus recommends using an Enterprise-ready Redis compatible NoSQL database run on Linux or Windows, as required. The open-source Redis provided with the product can only be used in a UNIX environment.

To start the Redis server for UNIX environments, start a command prompt, and then type:

$COBDIR/AdoptRedis/redis-server

Note: This starts the Redis server on the default port 6379.

Redis high availability can be achieved by using Redis Sentinel.
