Scaling Redis at Twitter

Twitter runs some of the largest Redis clusters in production. To adapt Redis to Twitter’s use cases, we have come up with both configuration best practices and several new features. This talk is to provide a case study of running Redis at scale- with numbers and stories, and what we have in mind for the future.
