Jedis

Access a DCS Redis instance through Jedis on an ECS in the same VPC. For more information about how to use other Redis clients, visit the Redis official website.

Spring Data Redis is already integrated with Jedis and Lettuce for Spring Boot projects. Spring Boot 1.x is integrated with Jedis, and Spring Boot 2.x is integrated with Lettuce. To use Jedis in Spring Boot 2.x and later, you need to solve Lettuce dependency conflicts.

Prerequisites

  • A DCS Redis instance has been created and is in the Running state.

  • View the IP address/domain name and port number of the DCS Redis instance to be accessed.

    For details, see Viewing Details of a DCS Instance.

  • An ECS has been created. For details about how to create an ECS, see the Elastic Cloud Server User Guide.

  • If the ECS runs the Linux OS, ensure that the Java compilation environment has been installed on the ECS.

(Optional) Configuring SSL Connections

If SSL is enabled for the instance, use the following content to replace the JedisClientConfiguration construction method clientConfiguration() in Bean Configuration for connecting to the instance with SSL. For details about whether your DCS Redis instances support SSL, see Configuring SSL.

@Bean
public JedisClientConfiguration clientConfiguration() throws Exception {

    configurationBuilder.usePooling().poolConfig(redisPoolConfig());
    configurationBuilder.useSsl().sslSocketFactory(getTrustStoreSslSocketFactory());
    return configurationBuilder.build();
}

private SSLSocketFactory getTrustStoreSslSocketFactory() throws Exception{
    //Load the CA certificate in the user-defined path based on service requirements.

Parameter Description

Table 1 RedisStandaloneConfiguration parameters

Parameter

Default Value

Description

hostName

localhost

IP address/domain name for connecting to a DCS Redis instance

port

6379

Port number

database

0

Database number. Default: 0.

password

-

Password

Table 2 RedisClusterConfiguration parameters

Parameter

Description

clusterNodes

Cluster node connection information, including the node IP address and port number

maxRedirects

Maximum redirecting times

password

Password

Table 3 JedisPoolConfig parameters

Parameter

Default Value

Description

minIdle

-

Minimum connections in the connection pool

maxIdle

-

Maximum idle connections in the connection pool

maxTotal

-

Maximum total connections in the connection pool

blockWhenExhausted

true

Indicates whether to wait after the connection pool is exhausted. true: Wait. false: Do not wait. To validate maxWaitMillis, this parameter must be set to true.

maxWaitMillis

-1

Maximum amount of time (in milliseconds) to wait for connection after the connection pool is exhausted. The default value -1 indicates to wait indefinitely.

testOnCreate

false

Indicates whether to enable connectivity test on creating connections. false: Disable. true: Enable.

testOnBorrow

false

Indicates whether to enable connectivity test on obtaining connections. false: Disable. true: Enable. For heavy-traffic services, set this parameter to false to reduce overhead.

testOnReturn

false

Indicates whether to enable connectivity test on returning connections. false: Disable. true: Enable. For heavy-traffic services, set this parameter to false to reduce overhead.

testWhileIdle

false

Indicates whether to check for idle connections. If this parameter is set to false, idle connections are not evicted. Recommended value: true.

softMinEvictableIdleTimeMillis

1800000

Duration (in milliseconds) after which idle connections are evicted. If the idle duration is greater than this value and the maximum number of idle connections is reached, idle connections are directly evicted.

minEvictableIdleTimeMillis

60000

Minimum amount of time (in milliseconds) a connection may remain idle in the pool before it is eligible for eviction. The recommended value is -1, indicating that softMinEvictableIdleTimeMillis is used instead.

timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis

60000

Interval (in milliseconds) for checking and evicting idle connections.

Table 4 JedisClientConfiguration parameters

Parameter

Default Value

Description

connectTimeout

2000

Connection timeout interval, in milliseconds.

readTimeout

2000

Timeout interval for waiting for a response, in milliseconds.

poolConfig

-

Pool configurations. For details, see JedisPoolConfig.

Suggestion for Configuring DCS Instances

  • Connection pool configuration

    Note

    The following calculation is applicable only to common service scenarios. You can customize it based on your service requirements.

    There is no standard connection pool size. You can configure one based on your service traffic. The following formulas are for reference:

    • Minimum number of connections = (QPS of a single node accessing Redis)/(1000 ms/Average time spent on a single command)

    • Maximum number of connections = (QPS of a single node accessing Redis)/(1000 ms/Average time spent on a single command) x 150%

    For example, if the QPS of a service application is about 10,000, each request needs to access Redis 10 times (that is, 100,000 accesses to Redis every second), and the service application has 10 hosts, the calculation is as follows:

    QPS of a single node accessing Redis = 100,000/10 = 10,000

    Average time spent on a single command = 20 ms (Redis takes 5 ms to 10 ms to process a single command under normal conditions. If network jitter occurs, it takes 15 ms to 20 ms.)

    Minimum number of connections = 10,000/(1000 ms/20 ms) = 200

    Maximum number of connections = 10,000/(1000 ms/20 ms) x 150% = 300
