Browse code

This sample show you how to incorporate Azure Cache for Redis into a Java app using the Redisson Redis client.

Prerequisites

Set up the working environment

Depending on your operating system, add environment variables for your cache's Host name and Primary access key. Open a command prompt, or a terminal window, and set up the following values:

set REDISCACHEHOSTNAME=<YOUR_HOST_NAME>.redis.cache.windows.net
set REDISCACHEKEY=<YOUR_PRIMARY_ACCESS_KEY>
set REDIS_CACHE_PORT=<YOUR_REDIS_PORT>

export REDISCACHEHOSTNAME=<YOUR_HOST_NAME>.redis.cache.windows.net
export REDISCACHEKEY=<YOUR_PRIMARY_ACCESS_KEY>
export REDIS_CACHE_PORT=<YOUR_REDIS_PORT>

Replace the placeholders with the following values:

  • <YOUR_HOST_NAME>: The DNS host name, obtained from the Properties section of your Azure Cache for Redis resource in the Azure portal.
  • <YOUR_PRIMARY_ACCESS_KEY>: The primary access key, obtained from the Access keys section of your Azure Cache for Redis resource in the Azure portal.
  • <YOUR_REDIS_PORT>: The port number, obtained from the Properties section of your Azure Cache for Redis resource in the Azure portal.
    • The default port number is 6380 for Azure Cache for Redis.
    • The default port number is 10000 for Azure Managed Redis.
