Another key feature offered by Redis is better scalability. In other words, Redis helps web applications scale easily with its distributed caching mechanism.

Furthermore, Redis offers support for advanced features like advanced data types, that can be used to implement complex data structures in web applications, and so on.

Our experts would like to point out that Redis also offers features like data persistence and replication. These features help ensure data availability and minimize the risk of data loss.

According to our experts, we can enable Redis on DirectAdmin only if we have root access to the server. Furthermore, we need to have DirectAdmin installed.

Now, let’s take a look at how to enable Redis in DirectAdmin with a few easy steps:

  1. To begin with, we have to log in to the server as the root user.
  2. Then, we have to run the following command in a terminal:

    cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild

  3. After that, run this command:

    ./build set redis yes

  4. Now, we have to wait for the command to complete running. This may take a few minutes depending on the server’s configuration.
  5. Then, run this command:

    ./build update

  6. Finally, run the following command:

    ./build redis

The above steps will install and configure Redis on DirectAdmin. After the installation, we can use Redis as the caching system. This is done by configuring Redis for individual websites or applications. We can do this easily via DirectAdmin’s graphical user interface. Alternatively, we can edit the server configuration files directly.
