Ultra-fast hosting with Redis cache
A slow website costs visitors and revenue. Redis caching on TurboStack stores data in RAM and retrieves it instantly, making your application much faster and more stable.
- Lightning-fast load times for shops and applications
- Reliable session storage thanks to dual Redis instances
- Fully scalable for peak traffic
What is Redis?
Redis (Remote Dictionary Server) is an open-source, in-memory key-value datastore that enables blazing-fast caching. Whether it’s frontend pages, backend processes, or session management, Redis makes your platform significantly faster and more stable.
Supported data types include strings, lists, maps, sets, sorted sets, and bitmaps. This makes Redis suitable for everything from simple caches to complex real-time applications.
Benefits of Redis on TurboStack
1. Instant performance boost
- Data served from RAM instead of the database
- Up to 70% faster load times
- Extra power from our dual Redis setup (cache + sessions)
2. Reliability and scalability
- Persistent Redis instance for sessions and critical data
- Scales easily during traffic peaks (e.g. Black Friday)
- One cache layer for multiple frontend servers
3. Smart cache management
- TTL and expiry fully configurable
- Automatic cleanup of outdated data
- Policies prevent cache overload
How Redis works in TurboStack
Our setup runs two Redis instances by default:
- Redis (6379) → for caching and performance
- Redis-persistent (6378) → for sessions and critical data
We also use socket files for local performance: less overhead and lower latency. This way, we combine caching power with maximum reliability.
With Redis on TurboStack, you get a setup that guarantees both speed and stability, even during maintenance or DDoS scenarios.
Who benefits from our Redis setup?
- E-commerce webshops (Magento, Shopware, WooCommerce) that depend on speed for conversions
- Digital agencies & developers that want a reliable caching layer without complex configurations
- CTOs and DevOps teams that need scalable and reliable caching, integrated with their hybrid cloud or Kubernetes setup
Frequently asked questions about Redis cache and webshop performance
Redis is built for extreme speed and scalability. During traffic peaks, Redis can handle millions of requests per second by serving data directly from RAM. In our TurboStack setup, we use dual Redis instances and load balancing to ensure your webshop stays stable even under Black Friday loads. This guarantees 99.99% uptime and prevents your database from being overloaded.
Redis is best suited for frequently requested data that needs to be served instantly, such as product details, search results, API responses, and user sessions. Large static files like CSS or JavaScript should not be cached in Redis; those are better handled through your CDN or server storage. By carefully deciding what to cache and what not, you keep Redis memory efficient and maximize performance gains.
