Amazon MemoryDB for Redis – Where speed meets consistency
Posted on November 16, 2021, Level beginner Resource Length long

It's critical that the data systems that support those microservices perform rapidly and reliably, and where speed is a primary concern, Redis has always been top performer. By Dr. Werner Vogels.
