How Dragonfly's Architecture Delivers 80% Lower Costs Than Redis
Many organizations have replaced Redis with Dragonfly and cut in-memory infrastructure costs by up to 80%. How? This white paper explains the architectural advantages that drive those savings.
Inside this white paper, you’ll learn:
- How Dragonfly’s multi-threaded architecture maximizes CPU usage and reduces node count
- Why Redis’s single-threaded model can lead to underutilized infrastructure
- Real customer examples achieving 65–69% cost reductions
- How optimized data structures reduce memory usage by up to 40%
- The hidden memory overhead in managed Redis services — and what you actually pay per usable GB
- How Dragonfly delivers a significantly lower cost per available GB
- What migration looks like with full Redis compatibility
If you’re running over 100GB on hosted Redis or managing high-throughput workloads, this report shows how to lower costs without sacrificing performance.
