At 8tracks.com we believe on finding the best tool for the job.

In the quest of finding a great persistence solution to power our "Explore" system one of our engineers stumbled upon redis.io.

A few years later, we run 25 different Redis instances powering several features for our 10 million users.

From Tag Browsing, to Autocomplete Search, persisting Player sessions and our News Feed. Our 4 engineers team eats the redis documentation for breakfast.

Come join me in some redis love while I tell you why we're such big fans of zsets, set intersections and some other nice features that help us power 12.5 million hours of streaming per month.
