When improving the performance of our applications we always start using caches to avoid wasting time on unnecessary readings. In Azure we have seen parading different types of cache services: the ASP.net cache under IIS; various services based on AppFabric including an in-role caching, to finally come up with a definitive bet with Redis Cache service. Redis, besides being Open Source, is an advanced store key-value cache, where keys can contain strings, lists, sets, arrays, bitmaps, and hyperloglogs hashes. In this session we will start by an introduction to the Redis world, from onpremise to cloud deployments, and then continue with how it can be used on DNN Platform based solutions, just by a using a Redis Caching Provider or by using it as a data store.
