Redis Mode

Redis has the powerful ability to act both as a key-value store and as a PubSub service. This way, the connected servers will communicate between them whenever a message hits the server, so you can scale out to any amount of servers while preserving the WebSockets functionalities.

Configure Redis mode

To enable the replication, simply change the replication.mode name in the websockets.php file to redis:

'replication' => [

    'mode' => 'redis',

    ...

],

You can set the connection name to the Redis database under redis:

'replication' => [

    'modes' =>

        'redis' => [

            'connection' => 'default',

        ],

    ],

],

The connections can be found in your config/database.php file, under the redis key.
