Detailed technical documentation on lettuce |
Lettuce is a scalable thread-safe Redis client providing synchronous,
asynchronous and reactive APIs. Multiple threads may share one connection if they avoid blocking and transactional operations such as BLPOP and MULTI/EXEC.
Multiple connections are efficiently managed by the excellent netty NIO
framework. Support for advanced Redis features such as Sentinel, Cluster, and Redis data models is included.
lettuce is available in two major versions. The 3.x stream and the 4.x stream. Both streams are maintained. The 4.x stream introduced breaking changes, as a user of 3.x you might be interested in the Migration guide from 3.x to 4.x.
Following rules should give a guidance for the stream in which a particular change is done:
Changes affecting both streams
-
New Redis commands (such as
HSTRLEN) -
Bugfixes
Changes in the 4.x stream only
-
New Redis paradigms
-
Enriching the API (such as multi-key command execution in the Cluster API)
-
Technical improvements to the client (such as the Reactive API)
The 3.x stream will be maintained until the end of 2016.
