A good introductory book on Redis Enterprise capabilities -- it covers the material in the Redis Enterprise Administration class, but at a higher level. Great for getting a sense of capabilities, and running a couple demonstrations on your local machine (some development experience required.)

Redis was handing this book out for free at Google Cloud Next this year. The book was short and easy read but really only gave an extremely high level overview of Redis. The use cases weren't too interesting and the explanations were pretty light. Aside from a few bothersome typos this book is fine if you're looking for a really quick intro to Redis.

I had this sitting in my bag for a long time now after a conference, figured I’d read it while traveling. Some interesting bits in between some basic facts and ads for redis labs. Worth skimming to see what’s new

It is concise version of the book but doesn't make too much sense for practitioner developer. It all can be picked from docs, StackOverflow. Well written, through.

The book was a very short introduction to redis and the illustration was good.

Very short, not worth, and exaggerated sales pitch on Redis Enterprise. I recommend readers checking Wikipedia instead.

Not a lot of info.
