Clear Linux* OS redis container image

What is this image?

clearlinux/redis is a Docker image with redis running on top of the official clearlinux base image.

Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache and message broker. It supports data structures such as strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets with range queries, bitmaps, hyperloglogs, geospatial indexes with radius queries and streams.

Why use a clearlinux based image?

Clear Linux* OS is an open source, rolling release Linux distribution optimized for performance and security, from the Cloud to the Edge, designed for customization, and manageability.

Clear Linux* OS based container images use:

• Optimized libraries that are compiled with latest compiler versions and flags.
• Software packages that follow upstream source closely and update frequently.
• An aggressive security model and best practices for CVE patching.
• A multi-staged build approach to keep a reduced container image size.
• The same container syntax as the official images to make getting started easy.
