Learn how to install Redis and configure WordPress to use the object cache with a plugin.

Check out my vlog channel @TonyFlorida

The plugin you selected is a freemium plugin with hints to upgrade to the full version. What about the WP Redis from Patheon? You have to copy the object-cache.php file to wp-content. But this is all to do isn't it? This is a completely free plugin. Could you do a video about it?

Tried this on my virtualmin home server and it actually shaved about 300 - 400ms off of my wordpress + elementor load time! I'm not getting the key prefix like you are though, Tony, am I doing something wrong? I want to use this for a couple of home installations of wordpress and am afraid the prefixes are going to screw up.

I love to learn from your tutorials. One comment though when you are typing commands the YT console is often covering what you are typing and it's hard to see.

Hi!
1. You took out the intro video.. Or do I misremember this channel having one? Put it back, just adjust the volume:)
2. how much faster is redis caching vs. memcache or other caching plugins in WP?
3. can you use Redis on another server? How about inside a docker or an LXC? What would the performance difference be? Another video talking about these issues is welcome! :-)

Do you not need php-redis? Do you not need to restart apache?

So where is CONFIGURATION of redis? Just default config work well?
IMO this tutorial lack of basic understanding who and how to validate cache? How many memory it can take? Where to set this memory? ete etc...

We need to limit its memory consumption, otherwise it will eat up all memory and things will start to crash.
