# Redis

Group: Data

Redis was the quote engine’s caching layer for rate tables and partial results, part of the work that took quotes from 10+ minutes to under 2.

## What I do with Redis

- Caching expensive lookups
- Rate limits per tenant
- Short-lived job and session state

## Projects that use it

- [Insurance quote engine](https://venuspaneliya.com/work/insurance-quote-engine/): From 10+ minutes to under 2
