Redis Data Types
Redis Data Types Supported by the Add-In
- Binary-safe Strings.
- Lists: collections of string elements sorted according to the order of insertion. They are basically linked lists.
- Sets: collections of unique, unsorted string elements.
- Sorted Sets (ZSets): similar to sets but where every string element is associated to a floating number value, called score. The elements are always taken sorted by their score, so unlike sets it is possible to retrieve a range of elements (for example you may ask: give me the top 10, or the bottom 10).
- Hashes: maps composed of fields associated with values. Both the field and the value are strings. This is very similar to Ruby or Python hashes.
