How-To configure local Redis

Introduction

You can use CoreOne with Redis as the store for task data. That should offload your MySQL instance and lead to better performance.

Step 1 - Configure the CoreOne Suite to use Redis

To enable Redis you have to adjust the following settings in the moving_global.config_setting_value - you should be able to find possible values in the description column of this setting value.

SettingId, SettingCode	50, TaskProgressUpdaterType
`Description`	Allows to log task progress to Redis or to MySQL instance
`Value for MySQL`	iTsense.Moving.Backend.Services.TaskSchedulerService.ProgressUpdaters.TaskProgressUpdaterDatabase,iTsense.Moving.Backend.Services.TaskSchedulerService
`Value for Redis`	iTsense.Moving.Backend.Services.TaskSchedulerService.ProgressUpdaters.TaskProgressUpdaterRedis,iTsense.Moving.Backend.Services.TaskSchedulerService

SettingId, SettingCode	51, TaskLockItemHandlerType
`Description`	Allows to store worklock items in Redis or in MySQL instance
`Value for MySQL`	iTsense.Moving.Backend.Common.TaskScheduler.WorkItemLockHandler.WorkItemLockHandlerDataBase,iTsense.Moving.Backend.Common
`Value for Redis`	iTsense.Moving.Backend.Common.Redis.Tasks.WorkItemLockHandlerRedis,iTsense.Moving.Backend.Common.Redis

SettingId, SettingCode	52, RedisConfiguration
`Description`	Configuration of your Redis instance

Step 2- Local Redis installation

If you want to run Redis locally on Windows machine you have a few options avaiable - Docker, virtual machine, paid solutions.

The easiest is to use Memurai (free for developer - not for production):

Download Nuget https://www.nuget.org/packages/MemuraiDeveloper/
Unzip it
Go to tools folder
Start memurai.exe (this is server process with Redis)
Start memurai-cli.exe (this is command line interface you can use to communicate)

After that you should be able to use Redis with CoreOne (just change setting 50/51 to use redis implementation). No need for change in the 52 setting with configuration.
