Hello everyone! 👋
I run a small set of containers on my NAS at Home to monitor different weather and run automations. Because of this I wanted to install Redis on my NAS as well.
Redis is a key value database that has a lot of extra modules such as:
- Redis Search: A query and indexing engine for Redis, providing secondary indexing, full-text search, vector similarity search and aggregations.
- Redis JSON: A NO-SQL Document Database
- Redis Graph: A graph database.
- Redis TimeSeries: A time series database.
- Redis Bloom: Bloom and Cuckoo filters implementation.
- Redis Streams: An append only Log
These functionalities save me a lot of time and improve my software running inside my home. Redis is also a simple service to deploy and maintain.
So I made a quick tutorial on how to install Redis on a Synology NAS using the Container Manager.
