Performance shines with seamless session caching and minimal configuration
The best features of Redis, from my personal perspective, are the performance, which is very quick, and it's very simple to implement. Since I started using Redis, I feel that the product is saving me some performance tuning time. It's very easy, I have few parameters to tune, and it seems to have performance without a lot of working on the performance, compared to Cassandra, where you have to configure the memory and many other settings. The integration capability of Redis is excellent. Redis is very affordable because it's free.

Easy to use, and there is no need to get involved in any tedious deployment process
If you are a business building a social media app, there will be thousands of users for every such app. Each user will have a post or something. When multiple users try to hit the like button on your post or try to comment on your post, each of them would be an API request, and Supabase Vector does not charge for them like. The API requests are kind of unlimited. If you compare Supabase Vector to any of the other services like Firebase, AWS, or Azure, all the tools charge per request. From a scalability standpoint, if you are a small-scale startup and you have around 1,00,000 or 2,00,000 users, then Supabase Vector is a perfect choice for you. I have never heard about any scalability issues in the product. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product offers fast access to my database."
"I use Redis mostly to cache repeated data that is required."
"Redis provides an easy setup and operation process, allowing users to quickly connect and use it without hassle."
"It is particularly efficient for cloud-based storage and operations."
"Redis has multiple valuable features such as being a free and reliable open-source tool."
"The performance of Redis is very fast."
"What I like best about Redis is its fast and easy use. It has interesting algorithms like HyperLogLog and provides useful features. It's also good for implementing scalable rate limiting."
"I find Redis valuable primarily for its caching capabilities, particularly in handling cache requests effectively. Its simplicity in managing key-value pairs for caching is one of its strengths, making it a preferred choice over more complex databases like MongoDB for specific use cases. However, I haven't explored Redis extensively for managing complex data structures beyond caching, as MongoDB might be more suitable for such scenarios."
"The tool is easy to use."
"The platform's role-level security feature is quite effective for spatial data management."
"Supabase enables us to lower the skill floor while keeping the ceiling high."
"Supabase enables us to lower the skill floor while keeping the ceiling high."
 

Cons

"The tool should improve by increasing its size limits and handling dynamic data better. We use the client ID or associate it with a key for static content. The solution will not be easy for a beginner. Unless you understand SQL data, it will be difficult to understand and use Redis. It also needs to be user-friendly."
"There is room for AWS to provide more options for server types or a way to configure more or less memory for them."
"If we use a lot of data, it will eventually cost us a lot."
"For the PubSub feature, we had to create our own tools to monitor the events."
"It's actually quite expensive."
"In future releases, I would like Redis to provide its users with an option like schema validation. Currently, the solution lacks to offer such functionality."
"Redis could improve its efficiency in handling locally stored data, not just Amazon Cloud or Google Cloud."
"There is a lack of documentation on the scalability of the solution."
"I think there are still many Postgres features that can be developed further by the Supabase team."
"One area for the solution improvement is the inclusion of more sample code in various programming languages, particularly PHP."
"I think there are still many Postgres features that can be developed further by the Supabase team."
"The support for React Native CLI is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Redis is an open-source solution. There are not any hidden fees."
"We saw an ROI. It made the processing of our transactions faster."
"Redis is an open-source product."
"The tool is open-source. There are no additional costs."
"Redis is not an overpriced solution."
"As per the product's regular pricing plans, the tools are available to users for 20 to 25 USD per month."
"The solution's cost is reasonable compared to other solutions."
