DB/Data Management
Redis
Product Overview
An open-source in-memory data structure store used as a database, cache, and message broker.
The OpenVMS port of Redis 4.0.0 can be used with Alpha and Integrity servers. It includes all in-memory/caching functionality, Lua scripting, and publish/subscribe functionality. Language-agnostic API makes it straightforward to develop applications using 3GL languages such as COBOL, Pascal, and Fortran. Currently, the OpenVMS port of Redis uses 32-bit pointers which limits maximum cache size to around 980MB. Future releases will use 64-bit pointers.
