Queues

Unlike many data stores, Redis can easily support queue-like functionality. Updates and deletes can be performed with minimal overhead, and it has data types available to work with Last In First Out (LIFO) and First In First Out (FIFO) queuing scenarios. Redis can also keep the number of items in a queue at the desired size, as well as provide methods for adding an item to the top or to the bottom of a list structure.
