Feature request: support for unix domain sockets #231

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
This a simple feature.

Due to the fact that unix domain sockets bypass filters, filewalls and etc., 
they are much faster then loopback interface.

Since performance is major concern for Redis, it is worth implementing. From 
my experince you get 50%-80% throughput gain compared to lo0.

I'm strongly considering using Redis as a primary IPC messaging platform using 
BLPOP. The performance gains 
from sockets combined with the ability to control access with file permissions 
would be wonderful.

Keep up the excellent work!

There is a fork of redis with unix sockets on github: 
http://github.com/masroore/redis-unix-socket

Merging would be great.

I use Redis extensively in a very performance-critical application. I would 
love to see Unix sockets available as well!

This should be marked as an enhancement, not a defect, but it definitely gets 
my vote.

I concur, this plus single master many slave would make my applications have a 
much higher throughput.

@WayneESeguin How many slaves do you want?  I may have missed it, but I don't 
believe there is a set limit to the number of slaves a master can have.

Josiah,

Sorry if I was unclear. Currently there is no limit on slaves that I am aware 
of.

The reason I would *love* to have the UDS feature is so that I may run a master 
Redis server with one slave on each of my application servers so that each 
application can access the Redis data store without the unnecessary overhead of 
full network packets and transmission on each server between application and 
Redis slave.

Wayne: Man, that's a pretty good idea. Now I want to do that too.

I would love to have this feature. Salvatore said in his San Fran talk that 
this was not a big change (the APIs for UnixDomainSockets are almost identical 
to those of TCP sockets) so it will be implemented. It is just a question of 
when, which is usually determined by how many people in the community need it. 
So this is me voting, yes I would LOVE to have this feature.

Wilson,

I am very glad you think so, I rather like it myself!

I've added Unix domain sockets support to Redis:

* http://github.com/tav/redis/compare/upstream...master

The new config settings are described in this mailing list post:

* http://groups.google.com/group/redis-db/browse_thread/thread/f2e9c0f55ceec5e8

Let me know if it proves useful.

-- Cheers, tav

Pieter (as in Salvatore and Pieter) implemented this on his fork, and tweeted 
about it a few days ago:

http://github.com/pietern/redis/commits/unixsocket
http://twitter.com/pnoordhuis/status/20087370775

It appears that unix domain sockets will be in the mainline fairly soon.

Excellent news!!! I look forward to this being in 2.0?

This has been merged to master. Support for redis-cli and redis-benchmark is 
available via the "-s" flag.
