ApsaraCache for Developers Training Course

Overview

ApsaraCache is a fork of Redis, the cloud-based in-memory data structure store that is commonly used as a database, cache and a message broker. ApsaraCache solves stability bottlenecks caused by frequent AOF Rewrite with time-based recovery to precision in seconds. It also solved the syncing problem when there’s a patchy connection.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at engineers who wish to integrate a powerful Redis alternative for storing and caching data in real-time.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the differences between Redis and ApsaraCache and make the most of ApsaraCache’s unique features.
  • Understand and employ the different Data Types and Commands used in ApsaraCache.
  • Integrate ApsaraCache with existing web applications to capture incoming data.
  • Use ApsaraCache to capture chat logs, scoreboards, and other real-world web data.
