REDIS Durability ? how to auto expire data?

I use REDIS to store data (string) . ex: key "s1" store value "hello world". key "s2" store value "bye bye". I want s1 auto expire (free memory) after 5 minutes but s2 never expire. I use C#, .net 4.0 >> how to code ?. thanks

Solution

  • Documentation regarding EXPIRE allows you to set an EXPIRE value per key, in seconds.

    EXPIRE s1 300

    will expire the key s1 in 5 minutes.

    See the documentation here: REDIS EXPIRE

    If you are looking for C# code, I think it would depend on what library you are using to access REDIS. There are some other SO questions that may help, but also discuss the problem where expire did not work: Redis Expire does not work
