Understanding Redis maxmemory Configuration and Approximate LRU Eviction Policies

Redis provides a configurable maxmemory setting to limit memory usage, and offers several eviction policies—including allkeys‑lru, volatile‑lru, and random strategies—implemented via an approximate LRU algorithm whose behavior can be tuned with maxmemory‑samples, allowing administrators to balance performance and memory reclamation.
