How can I turn on Redis?

If it is not installed, install it first (follow the Instructions). When Redis is installed and php_redis extension is on, the Redis option will appear in “Performance” tab and on the “Storage for draft data” list.

What is "Storage for draft data"?

Keitaro has a separate traffic processing module whose work is speed-oriented.

  • MySQL — data saved straight to the database. You can see the visitors right away in “Visitor details” report, but heavy load decreases the speed of traffic processing;
  • Files — the processor works faster, but there is a delay in data display in reports;
  • Redis — this is the fastest storage. Highly recommended for heavy loads.

All the storage data is dumped when cron.php is launched. That is why task planner setup is mandatory.
