sprockets.clients.redis

Base functionality for accessing/modifying data in Redis. Currently there is only support for interacting with Redis servers in a sharded manner.

That is to say, there are multiple Redis servers we are distributing reads and writes among them based on a consistent hash of the key value we're operating on. This is also known as "Client Side Partitioning".

More information about setting up or managing Redis in this manner can be found on the Redis documentation website: http://redis.io/topics/partitioning
