Redis Pipeline

Noun · Development

Definitions

  1. A technique for sending multiple Redis commands to the server in a single batch without waiting for each individual reply, dramatically reducing round-trip latency by amortizing network overhead across many operations.

    In plain English: Sending a bunch of Redis commands all at once instead of one at a time, so you only wait for the network once instead of hundreds of times.

    Example: "Pipelining those 200 HSET commands cut our write latency from 40ms to 2ms — we were paying for round trips, not Redis."
