@dralley I think that is a fair question and to my knowledge we do not have much data in this regard. We just have “best” practice recommendations.

What’s hard to know is what will happen at larger scales. @evgeni Have we seen any data for Redis memory / disk storage from our monitoring?
@aruzicka - Thanks for the explanation of how we use Sidekiq. This is side-tracking a bit, but all seems to get at the heart of how we use Redis and why. @jturel pulling you into this as this description of using Sidekiq as the brain orchestrating sound rather close to some of the proposed changes to Katello’s event queue. Is there some potential there?
