Karena Redis menyimpan data di RAM, manajemen memori sangat penting — memahami batas maxmemory, kebijakan eviksi, optimasi memori, dan pemantauan sangat penting untuk menjalankan Redis dengan andal tanpa kehabisan memori.
maxmemory dan eviksi
Set a memory limit so Redis doesn't consume all RAM:
maxmemory 2gb # cap Redis at 2GB
maxmemory-policy allkeys-lru # what to do when the limit is reached
When the limit is hit, Redis EVICTS keys per the policy (or rejects writes):
allkeys-lru → evict least-recently-used (any key) — common for a pure cache
allkeys-lfu → evict least-frequently-used
volatile-lru → evict LRU among keys WITH a TTL only
volatile-ttl → evict keys closest to expiry
noeviction → reject writes when full (good if Redis holds important data)
