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

"Redis has multiple valuable features such as being a free and reliable open-source tool."
"The in-memory data makes it fast."
"The solution is fast, provides good performance, and is not too expensive."
"Redis is a simple, powerful, and fast solution."
"The solution's technical support team is good...The solution's initial setup process was straightforward."
"The most valuable features of Redis are its ease of use and speed. It does not have access to the disc and it is fast."
"Since I started using Redis, I feel that the product is saving me some performance tuning time."
"The best thing about Redis is its ability to handle large amounts of data without frequently hitting the database. You can store data in temporary memory, especially for high-volume data."
"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."
"The tool is easy to use."
"The platform's role-level security feature is quite effective for spatial data management."
 

Cons

"It's actually quite expensive."
"Redis could improve its efficiency in handling locally stored data, not just Amazon Cloud or Google Cloud."
"The initial setup took some time as our technical team needed to familiarize themselves with Redis."
"The initial setup of Redis was difficult, with a rating of two or three out of ten."
"There are some features from MongoDB that I would like to see included in Redis to enhance its overall efficiency, such as the ability to perform remote behaviour. MongoDB is more efficient in handling updates than deletions and is quicker in processing updates, but it can be slower regarding deletions. This can sometimes pose a challenge, especially when dealing with large datasets or frequent data manipulations that involve deletions. In such cases, I often rewrite columns or update values instead of directly deleting data, as it can be more efficient."
"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."
"The only thing is the lack of a GUI application. There was a time when we needed to resolve an issue in production. If we had a GUI, it would have been easier."
"Redis presents a single point of failure and lacks fault tolerance."
"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."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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