Redis is an open-source, in-memory data structure store used as a database, cache, and message broker.

Auto-Detection

Section titled “Auto-Detection”

Glouton detects Redis by its process and listening port (default: 6379).

If auto-detected parameters are incorrect, override them manually:

Terminal window
sudo tee /etc/glouton/conf.d/99-redis.conf > /dev/null << 'EOF'
service:
  # For a Redis running outside a container
  - type: "redis"
    address: "127.0.0.1"
    port: 6379
    password: "password-if-configured"


  # For an additional Redis running outside a container
  - type: "redis"
    instance: "NAME_ASSOCIATED_WITH_YOUR_ADDITIONAL_SERVICE"
    address: "127.0.0.1"
    port: 6380
    password: "password-if-configured"


  # For a Redis running in a Docker container
  - type: "redis"
    instance: "CONTAINER_NAME"
    address: "172.17.0.2"
    port: 6379
    password: "password-if-configured"
EOF

Glouton automatically detects configuration changes.

Health Check

Section titled “Health Check”

Glouton performs a Redis protocol check on the configured port to verify that the server is responding.
