Cache

In-memory key-value cache with Redis-compatible features.

When to Use

When the user needs in-process caching, TTL-based expiry, LRU eviction, pub/sub messaging, or a lightweight Redis-compatible RESP server.

Capabilities

• Key-Value Store — Concurrent sharded HashMap with set, get, delete, keys
• TTL — Time-to-live expiry on keys
• LRU Eviction — Least-recently-used eviction when capacity is reached
• Pub/Sub — In-process publish/subscribe messaging channels
• RESP Server — Redis-compatible protocol server (connect with redis-cli)
• Persistence — Snapshot to disk, restore on startup

Programmatic Usage

use ix_cache::{Cache, CacheConfig};

let cache = Cache::new(CacheConfig::default());
cache.set("key", &json!("value"));
let val: Option<Value> = cache.get("key");
cache.delete("key");
