Messages sent by publishers are not sent directly to specific recipients (subscribers), but pass through channels. Only subscribers to the channel in question receive the message, which is sent \"at most once\" (at-most-once). This means that once a message has been sent by the Redis server, there's no chance of it being sent again. In the event of an error or network disconnection, the message is permanently lost. This decoupling of publishers and subscribers enables greater scalability and a more dynamic network topology.\"\n    }\n  }]\n}\n<\/script>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the advent of NoSQL databases, Redis is coming into its own, offering in-memory data management.
