Can Redis be used as a Primary database?

The Backend Engineering Show with Hussein Nasser - A podcast by Hussein Nasser

This episode of the backend engineering show is sponsored by my friends at RedisLabs. I’m going to break this video into three sections, we will first define features that qualify a primary database? Then we will see if Redis actually check the boxes of a primary database and finally we explore the features of Redis that take it beyond a primary database. I was personally surprised by most of those.
