The easiest way to install is to use Manage Nuget Packages and search for "redis" and choose "C# Redis client for the Redis NoSQL DB", as displayed above. After adding the Redis client Nuget library, make sure you have access to a Redis server. On Windows, it is possible to install Redis server by downloading it from the GitHub page supported by MSOpenTech. Note that Redis server is officially supported on Linux and in production environments, Redis is considered a bit experimental for Windows servers. However, Redis is now an established technology. It is though suggested to download not the very newest version of the Redis package and server, version 2.6 should work well as of now (p.t. 10.09.2015). Download the Redis client and server from here: Redis 64 Windows binaries (zipped) Installing Redis is dead simple, just unzip and copy Redis binaries to a folder. However, for production environments, you will want to install Redis as a Windows Service. This is explained here: Running Redis as a Windows Service Here is some sample code that communicates with the Redis server (considered to be available on localhost, default port is 6379):
