Redis is an open-source in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and message broker. This guide will walk you through the steps to install Redis Server on Debian 11.

Step 1: Update Your System

Start by ensuring your system is up to date:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Step 2: Install Redis Server

You can install Redis Server from the default Debian repositories using the following command:

sudo apt install redis-server -y

Step 3: Configure Redis

Once the installation is complete, you can configure Redis by editing its configuration file:

sudo nano /etc/redis/redis.conf

Look for the line that says supervised no and change it to:

supervised systemd

This allows Redis to be supervised by systemd.

Step 4: Start and Enable Redis Service

Start the Redis service and enable it to run at boot:

sudo systemctl start redis.service
sudo systemctl enable redis.service

Step 5: Verify Redis Installation

To check if Redis is running, use the following command:

sudo systemctl status redis

You should see that the Redis service is active and running.

Step 6: Test Redis Functionality

Connect to the Redis server using the Redis CLI:

Run a test command to ensure it's working:

set test "Hello, Redis!"
get test

You should see the output: "Hello, Redis!"
