About
The Firebase Realtime Database is a NoSQL cloud-hosted database developed by Google.
It stores data as JSON, synchronizes updates in real time across all connected clients, supports built-in offline persistence so apps continue working without network, and scales to around 200,000 concurrent client connections and 1,000 writes per second in a single database.
Redis is a popular high-performance in-memory key-value database that persists on disk.
It supports rich data structures beyond simple strings, offers master-replica replication, clustering across up to thousands of nodes via hash-slot sharding, and automatic failover.
