    S4E19 - Spring & Redis with Raphael De Lio

    Join Dan Vega and DaShaun Carter for the latest updates from the Spring Ecosystem. In this episode, Dan and DaShaun are joined by Redis Developer Advocate, Raphael De Lio. Join us as we explore Redis’s ever-growing role in the Spring ecosystem.  We will look discuss its common and foundational use cases, then dig into new and exciting use cases, including similarity search, the cutting-edge vector data type, and how Redis is becoming a key player in AI-driven solutions. Get ready to discover the latest ways Spring developers are leveraging Redis to build highly performant and intelligent applications. You can participate in our live stream to ask questions or catch the replay on your preferred podcast platform. Key Takeaways What is Redis? Originally created in 2009 as a fast, horizontally scalable databaseKnown primarily for caching, but it's actually a full database with persistence and transactionsRedis 8 is now open source again with massive performance improvements (87% faster execution, 2x higher throughput)Beyond Caching: Redis Use Cases Vector databases for AI applications (semantic search, caching, routing)Time series data for real-time analyticsGeospatial indexing for location-based featuresProbabilistic data structures (Bloom filters, count-min sketch) for high-scale applicationsStreams for message queues and real-time data processingSession storage for distributed applicationsAI & Vector Database Applications Semantic caching: Cache LLM responses using vector similarity (can reduce costs by 60%)Semantic routing: Route queries to appropriate tools without calling LLMsMemory for AI agents: Short-term and long-term conversation memoryRecommendation systems: Power Netflix/YouTube-style recommendationsGetting Started with Spring Use start.spring.io with Docker Compose for easy setupSpring Data Redis for basic caching with @CacheableRedis OM Spring for advanced features (vector search, JSON, etc.)New annotations: @Vectorize and @Indexed for automatic vector embeddingsUpcoming Events Spring One - 6 weeks away in Las VegasRedis Hackathon - July 23rd via dev.to/challengesLinks & Resources RedisRedis OM SpringRedis YouTube ChannelSpring One ConferenceStart Spring IOConnect with Raphael DeLeo Email: rafael.deleo@redis.comLinkedIn: Raphael DeLeoGitHub: raphaeldelio Blue Sky: raphaeldelio.dev Redis vs Valkey discussion included - Redis 8 returns to open source with significant performance improvements and integrated modules that were previously separate.
