Talk at ConFoo 2012 (English - UK)
Most of the NoSQL movement and buzz happened around the Map/Reduce type of storage like CouchDB and MongoDB, while Redis, mostly unknown, shines by it's simplicity. It is an in-memory database that (unlike Memcached) actually persists the data to disk to survive restarts and failures. It can help scale up write-heavy applications, but also serves as a great tool to understand how most databases work and learn to think in lower level storage terms, and can be fun to play with for small scale projects.

Great presentation, great sense of humour, I knew about Redis before attending but Jordi helped me understand the context of usage of this kind of tool. I really think we "saw the future" in this presentation.

Thank you very much for this introduction on Redis, but it will be useful to make a small php application where we implement Redis, thank you again :)

Excellent overview. The tips on when to use redis to do heavy lifting were great.

Interesting technology, but the presentation was a bit boring. I guess Jordie was jet lagged.

A very helpful introduction to Redis. I'm interested in trying it out, even if I am never able to use it in a project.
I got a bit confused with some of the functions called; maybe a live example would have helped.
Jordi tends to mumble a bit, and his voice gets quiet at the end of sentences (I have some hearing loss, so I notice this), so it would be helpful if he worked on his presentation.
