Level:  Case Study


Modern applications built for high performance and user-responsiveness use in-memory nosql as a critical layer of their stack. Join Redis Labs’ CTO to learn which use cases in-memory NoSQL is a must-have for and how this use can be made extremely cost -effective.

Stance, a pioneer of the modern retail experience, built such a highly responsive website that can handle thousands of simultaneous requests with sub-millisecond latency using the MEANR stack (MongoDB, Express, AngularJS, Node.JS and Redis).

Join this session to learn:
  • Which in-memory NoSQL use cases should you use for the best results
  • How Stance architected their website for optimal user experience
  • How to make your use of in-memory NoSQL most cost-effective
