Why models recommend it
“Redis for a key-value database”GLM 4.7 FlashX · Paraphrase question · first choice
“For caching, real-time, or session store: Redis (via ElastiCache or Redis Cloud) is almost always the right answer.”MiniMax M2.5 · Scale-constrained question · alternative
“In-Memory / Fast Key-Value | Redis Enterprise, Dragonfly | Caching, session stores, real-time leaderboards.”Gemini 3.5 Flash · Scale-constrained question · alternative
“you primarily need caching, sessions, queues, or real-time ephemeral state—not the main system of record”Perplexity Sonar · Paraphrase question · alternative
What gives them pause
“Avoid Redis as a sole data store for critical financial data.”MiniMax M2.5 · Negative question · warning
“Redis as the only copy of important data — Don't assume data is durable just because it's in a database.”GPT-6 Luna · Negative question · warning
“Redis is rarely used as a *primary* database for storage due to cost constraints and lack of durability”Qwen 3.7 Flash · Direct question · warning
“- Not ideal as primary DB (persistence optional, weaker querying).<br>- Memory-heavy/costly at scale.”Grok 4.20 · Paraphrase question · warning

How this is measured
Fourteen AI models from 12 labs are asked the same buying questions six ways, for three company sizes. Standings refresh every edition.
Gane sells AI visibility software. No company can pay to change a result.
Read the method →Sources returned with these answers
Fourteen of the fourteen models returned a source list in this edition: five return the pages they cited and nine the search results they consulted. These counts come from 107 of the 152 answers that named Redis and are not a share of its labels.
Domains cited
247 of the 274 domain citations in answers naming Redis came from a third party's page. Twenty-seven were to the publisher's own pages (the Gane Index), which the models cite like any other source; they are not counted as a third party.
Pages cited
Pages are listed as the models cited them.

How it is countedHide how it is counted
Every page redis.io exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated. An event counts as online when its address or title says so (webinar, on demand, virtual or online summit); a conference, summit, trade show, expo or roadshow that does not say so is counted as a conference or event, which on a vendor's site is mostly in person.
