In Redis, the GET command returns the value of a given key. If the key doesn’t exist, it returns nil.
An error is returned if the value stored at key is not a string.
Redis LASTSAVE Command Explained

Install Redis on a Mac with Homebrew
Below are the steps that I used to install Redis on my M1 Mac. The M1 Mac (and M2) uses the ARM64 architecture, but this is not a problem, as Redis versions 4.0 and above support the ARM architecture.
SQL NVL2() Explained
Some DBMSs have an NVL2() function that allows us to replace a value with another value, the new value being determined by whether or not the initial value is null.
It’s similar to the NVL() function, except that NVL2() accepts exactly three arguments. This allows us to specify a different value to return in the event the first argument is not null.
In contrast, with the NVL() function, some DBMSs accept only two arguments (which makes the function a synonym for the IFNULL() function) while others accept an unlimited number of arguments (which makes it a synonym for the COALESCE() function).
Find Duplicate Rows that have a Primary Key in SQL
Here are examples of using SQL to return duplicate rows when those rows have a primary key or other unique identifier column.
These queries work in most of the major RDBMSs, including SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, and SQLite.
How to Get the Definition of a Generated Column in PostgreSQL
