In a previous blog, I stated that the most challenging problem people tend to hit when modernizing apps is not so much the modernization of the codebase itself, but rather the huge underlying legacy databases coupling everything together and holding you back from real progress despite all modernization efforts in the application domain.
“Redis is cool tech, the best option when you need a fast cache.”, that summarizes my image of Redis until sometime ago when I truly started to research modern data platforms in connection to application modernization efforts.
