Funny. My approach is usually the other way around: Can I get away with just Redis?

Hey I assume this is like a joke and not too serious, and we'd all switch off when things got a bit hairy, but I sure hope other readers can tell.

I am literally in the middle of digging a company out of this mistake (keeping Redis too long) right now. If your software/data is worth something, take a week or a month and figure out a reasonable schema, use an auto-generation tool, ORM, or hire a DB for a little bit to do something for you. Even MongoDB is better than redis if your're gonna do something like this.

If you store protos in your Redis keys (like most people using “NoSQL” for data storage), this comment doesn’t have much punch. Pretty sure we all can think of some pretty high profile examples of NoSQL + structured data working very very well at scale.
