NEW: Redis Cloud Clusters with Regular Expression Sharding
RegEx Sharding is now publicly available for Redis Cloud Pay-as-You-Go subscribers, allowing users to define how data is distributed between shards. This feature enables applications to perform multi-key operations at top performance on large datasets. The announcement also provides an overview of the "why" and "what" of a Redis Cluster, which is an open source, in-memory NoSQL database designed for horizontal scaling through clustering and sharding. RegEx Sharding offers more flexibility than standard sharding policies by allowing users to configure regular expression rules that extract hash tags from key names.
