Redis 是一个高性能的key-value数据库。 redis的出现，很大程度补偿了memcached这类keyvalue存储的不足，在部 分场合可以对关系数据库起到很好的补充作用。它提供了Python，Ruby，Erlang，PHP客户端，使用很方便。
2012-11-22 发布2.6.5。上个版本是2012-11-08的2.6.4。此版本修改了MULTI/EXEC处理错误的行为等。遗留产品线还是2.4.17。
完全改进：
UPGRADE URGENCY: MODERATE
Warning: this release of Redis introduces a different behavior in MULTI/EXEC
handling of errors. This was done because the new behavior is safer
compared to the old one, and should not break any code targeting
Redis 2.6 in a critical way.

* [IMPROVED] RDB/AOF childern now log amount of additional memory used
because of copy on write.
* [BUGFIX] MIGRATE non critical fixes (see commits for details).
* [BUGFIX] MULTI/EXEC: now EXEC aborts on errors before EXEC.
* [BUGFIX] Fix integer overflow in zunionInterGenericCommand resulting
into Z[INTER|UNION][STORE] commands to crash under extremely
unlikely conditions (almost impossible in real world).
* [BUGFIX] EVALSHA is now case insensitive (and will not crash).
