For those of you who haven't heard the buzz, or drank the Koolaid,
Redis is
a fast key value store where the values can be not only strings, but
lists and hashes,
and the data is not volatile.

You can now use Redis as your second level cache. Get it here:
https://github.com/boxerab/NHRedis

In this release, it simply mimics memcached. But, I am hoping to
eventually use
some of the cooler Redis features, like lists and locks. NHibernate
currently does not
have a distributed cache provider that supports a strict read-write
cache, so I think Redis could provide
this (almost).

This is a very alpha version: it passes all NUnit tests, but may have
problems when running with
NHibernate. So, please, try to break it if you have some time :)

And thanks to Demis Bellot for his excellent ServiceStackRedis .NET
client.

Cheers,
Jorge
