How agents use Redis

  • Cache LLM responses to avoid redundant API calls and reduce costs
  • Maintain conversation state and session data across agent interactions
  • Implement rate limiting and usage tracking for AI workflows
  • Queue tasks between agent pipeline stages using Redis lists
  • Pub/sub event broadcasting between concurrent agent processes
