DragonFly
What is DragonFly
DragonFly is a modern in-memory datastore, designed as a Redis alternative with better scalability and resource efficiency. It offers a Redis-compatible API while providing improved performance on multi-core systems. DragonFly is built to handle high-throughput scenarios and large datasets more efficiently than traditional in-memory datastores.
With its multi-threaded architecture and advanced data structures, DragonFly aims to provide enhanced scalability and performance for applications that require Redis-like functionality on modern hardware.
Data Persistence
By default, Dragonfly DB does not save data to disk. To enable persistence, set up snapshots manually.
For example, configure the service with:
services:
dragonfly:
command: 'dragonfly --requirepass XXXXXXXX --dir /data --dbfilename dragonfly-snapshot-{timestamp} --snapshot_cron "*/5 * * * *"'You can also trigger manual saves using the SDK's SAVE command.
