Redis for us almost operates as a set of application servers. We push a great deal of logic into Lua that we compile so that tons of back and forth operations aren't necessary. This also limits the data sent back to the API servers since only the structures needed are sent back.

We're rather coupled with Redis as a result with much of the application logic in Lua and our data structure designed around Redis structure types and commands.
