Redis Connections

Shows you how to configure Redis clients without shooting yourself in the foot. The big wins are connection pooling (never create a connection per request), pipelining batches of independent commands, and using SCAN instead of KEYS in production. It also covers RESP3 client-side caching for hot keys and timeout tuning. Written by Redis, Inc., so the guidance is authoritative. Most valuable when you're setting up redis-py, Jedis, or Lettuce for the first time, or when you notice latency creeping into what should be fast Redis calls. The blocking commands section clears up a common confusion about BLPOP on multiplexed connections.
