25.2.01


Enhanced diagnostics for the Redis client

The Connected Clients Utilization (ConnectedClientsUtilization) and Blocked Clients Utilization (BlockedClientsUtilization) parameters are added in the RIS_NODE_CLIENTS application class. These parameters identify when the Redis client is nearing its connection limits or when the Redis client is being forced to wait because of blocking operations. With this capability, you can detect performance bottlenecks for Redis clients early and prevent service slowdowns.

For more information, see Clients (RIS_NODE_CLIENTS)
