Redis Integration

Configure the Watchlog Agent to monitor your Redis instance and gain deep insights into cache performance.

1. Install Watchlog Agent

2. Configure Integration

After installing the agent, open integration.json in your agent directory and add the Redis block:


  {
    "service": "redis",
    "monitor": true,
    "host": "127.0.0.1",
    "port": "6379",
    "password": ""
  }
  

Then restart the agent to apply changes:

Linux Restart

pm2 restart watchlog-agent

Windows Restart

Restart-Service -Name "WatchlogAgent"
