Technical Overview

Engineering breakdown of Architecting Redis In-Memory Eviction Strategies (4785). Bare-metal hardware performance requires isolated kernel parameters, tuned vm.swappiness, and careful maxmemory-policy selection to avoid latency spikes under memory pressure.

Eviction Policy Matrix

Redis offers eight eviction policies. The table below maps each policy to typical Kubernetes workload profiles, highlighting trade‑offs between hit‑rate, CPU overhead, and tail latency.
