Getting started with Redis Cache C#

This is a guide to get started with Redis cache on .NET.

• Create a new visual studio console project. Then right click selects on Manage Nu-Get packages and select online option and search for “StackExchange” in the search field and install StackExchange.Redis.
• Now to get connected to Redis and its database here is a snippet.

•     // This should be stored and reused
  var redis = ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect(“localhost”);

  // IDatabase is simple object which is cheap to build
  IDatabase db = redis.GetDatabase();

• To save a string value into a database:
  

   db.StringSet(“KeyName”, “KeyValue”);

• In order to test this, we need to find out the value for key name.
  

  Console.WriteLine(db.StringGet(“KeyName”);

So, this is how you can get started with Redis cache using .NET to save and retrieve values in and out of a database.
