Overview of this book

In modern applications, efficiency in both operational and analytical aspects is paramount, demanding predictable performance across varied workloads. This book introduces you to Redis Stack, an extension of Redis and guides you through its broad data modeling capabilities. With practical examples of real-time queries and searches, you’ll explore Redis Stack’s new approach to providing a rich data modeling experience all within the same database server. You’ll learn how to model and search your data in the JSON and hash data types and work with features such as vector similarity search, which adds semantic search capabilities to your applications to search for similar texts, images, or audio files. The book also shows you how to use the probabilistic Bloom filters to efficiently resolve recurrent big data problems. As you uncover the strengths of Redis Stack as a data platform, you’ll explore use cases for managing database events and leveraging introduce stream processing features. Finally, you’ll see how Redis Stack seamlessly integrates into microservices architectures, completing the picture. By the end of this book, you’ll be equipped with best practices for administering and managing the server, ensuring scalability, high availability, data integrity, stored functions, and more.

Top-K

The Top-K data structure is used to keep track of items with the highest rank, such as the top players in a leaderboard. The ranking, or score, is often based on the count of how many times an item appears in the data source (such as a stream), making the data structure ideal for identifying elements with the highest frequency. Among the most common use cases of this data structure are leaderboards, trending entities in a system, detecting network anomalies, and DDoS attacks. Here, the Top-K data structure can help answer questions such as “Which top addresses or IPs have the highest surge in the flow of requests?”

Let’s dive into an example of using the Top-K data structure and insert a few items into it. First, we must initialize it using the following command:

TOPK.RESERVE key topk [width depth decay]

In addition to key, which specifies the Top-K name, topk indicates the number of top items we want to keep track of, and width indicates the number...
