Minio vs Redis: What are the differences?

Developers describe Minio as "AWS S3 open source alternative written in Go". Minio is an object storage server compatible with Amazon S3 and licensed under Apache 2.0 License. On the other hand, Redis is detailed as "An in-memory database that persists on disk". Redis is an open source, BSD licensed, advanced key-value store. It is often referred to as a data structure server since keys can contain strings, hashes, lists, sets and sorted sets.

Minio belongs to "Cloud Storage" category of the tech stack, while Redis can be primarily classified under "In-Memory Databases".

Minio and Redis are both open source tools. Redis with 37.1K GitHub stars and 14.3K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Minio with 16.7K GitHub stars and 1.56K GitHub forks.

reddit, Instacart, and Slack are some of the popular companies that use Redis, whereas Minio is used by AgFlow, codebeat, and Minio. Redis has a broader approval, being mentioned in 3239 company stacks & 1732 developers stacks; compared to Minio, which is listed in 19 company stacks and 12 developer stacks.
