Is this client working with Redis standalone?

[goldyfruit]

Hi,

I would like to know if this client is only working with Redis Cluster or if it is working as well with a Redis standalone instance?

I know https://github.com/Nordix/eredis is existing but we were wondering if we have to support both clients or just have eredis_cluster handling both use cases.

Thanks.

Hi!

I believe there is some code for this, yes. If CLUSTER SLOTS fails, there is a fallback to standalone mode. However, there is a lot of overhead compared to using a simple eredis connection.

Btw, in case you're trying out different solutions, we are now actively working on another more efficient cluster client: https://github.com/Ericsson/ered
