5 Reasons Why Developers Prefer Dragonfly Over Redis

#1 - Dragonfly Outperforms Redis Up To 25x

Dragonfly delivers unparalleled performance, with benchmarks showing throughput up to 25x higher than Redis. Even at the 99th percentile, Dragonfly's latency only increases slightly by ~0.2ms compared to Redis, ensuring consistently fast response times.

#2 - Dragonfly Offers Up To 80% Cost Savings

With its efficient resource utilization, Dragonfly allows you to achieve substantial cost savings compared to Redis. Its smaller memory footprint translates to lower infrastructure costs, while its ability to scale vertically on a single instance eliminates the need for complex and expensive Redis clustering setups. Dragonfly's high performance also means you can handle more workload with fewer instances, further reducing your operational expenses.

#3 - Dragonfly Scales Effortlessly

With its multi-threaded architecture, Dragonfly fully utilizes available hardware resources for optimal scalability. It can scale vertically on a single instance to support millions of operations per second and terabyte-sized workloads, eliminating the need for complex Redis cluster management and associated data loss risks.

#4 - Dragonfly Has Efficient Memory Usage

Dragonfly boasts a smaller memory footprint than Redis for the same dataset, ensuring efficient resource utilization. Additionally, it avoids the memory spikes that Redis experiences during snapshotting processes, providing consistent and predictable memory usage.

#5 - Dragonfly is a Drop-In Replacement

Dragonfly is fully compatible with the Redis ecosystem, allowing you to seamlessly migrate without any code changes. It supports approximately 185 Redis commands, equivalent to the Redis 5.0 API, ensuring a smooth transition for your existing applications.
