In Redis, the LPOP command removes and returns the first elements of the list stored at the specified key.
By default, the command pops a single element from the beginning of the list. However, we have the option of passing a second argument that specifies how many elements to pop.
Continue readingWhen using Redis, we often have many ways to do the same thing. One example of this is with deleting keys.
Below are four options for deleting keys in Redis.
Continue readingIn Redis, the RPUSHX command inserts one or more values into the tail of the list at the specified key, but only if the key exists and it contains a list.
If the key doesn’t exist, no operation is performed. If the key exists but it doesn’t contain a list, an error is returned.

If the key doesn’t exist, it is created as an empty list before performing the push operation. If the key already holds a value that is not a list, an error is returned.

For datetime values, we can use the DATETIME() function.

Continue readingIn Redis, we can use the STRLEN command to get the length of a given string value, based on its key.
We can also use the HSTRLEN command to get the string length of a value stored in a hash.
Redis provides us with quite a few options for setting keys and any timeouts associated with those keys. Sometimes we can do it with a single command, other times we need two commands.
Here are four ways to set a key and its expiry in Redis.
Continue readingThe following examples use SQL to delete duplicate rows that have a primary key or unique identifier column.
Specifically, the examples delete all duplicates except one. So for example, in the case of three identical rows, it deletes two of them and keeps one.
