Introduction
Redis is an in-memory database structure, which we have introduced in phpFox 4.4.0+. Our usage of Redis has been focused on lowering the overall load to the MySQL database, especially in the activity feed. On average, each feed you see in your activity stream will have 4 queries. Redis comes in to remove those queries. The main user's dashboard at the minimum would have 40 queries, and with the implementation of Redis, this drops to 1 query which is used to load the specific feed for the logged in user.
Enabling Redis Support
Log into your AdminCP and head on over to Settings > Performance
Look for and enable the Redis URI & Enable Redis features. You must first fill in the URI before you can enable Redis support.
