Using Redis to Cache LigeroSmart Information

As of version 6.1.10, LigeroSmart offers the option of Cache with Redis, to facilitate the creation of environments with load balancing and high availability.

To enable Cache, follow these steps:

Upload a Redis server/cluster

If you don't have a Redis cluster, you can start using a Redis container that we make available on docker-compose.yml from LigeroSmart. Just uncomment the lines below:

      
  # Redis cache # Configuration reference on https://docs.ligerosmart.com cache: image: redis:6-buster restart: always
    

Then, just upload the service with "docker-compose up -d cache“

Configure Cache in LigeroSmart

Access the System Settings, within the administration.

Adjust the following parameters:

Cache::Module: Kernel::System::Cache::Redis

Cache::Redis###DatabaseNumber: 0

Cache::Redis###RedisFast: enable if you want to try the RedisFast perl module instead of Redis

Cache::Redis###Server: cache:6378 or Redis Cluster address

Apply the settings and your system will be using Cache via Redis!
