You can significantly improve your Nextcloud server performance with memory
caching, where frequently-requested objects are stored in memory for faster
retrieval. There are two types of caches to use: a PHP opcode cache, which is
commonly called *opcache*, and data caching for your Web server. If you do not
install and enable a local memcache you will see a warning on your Nextcloud
admin page. **A memcache is not required and you may safely ignore the warning
if you prefer.**

all possible config parameters).
Recommendations based on type of deployment

You may use both a local and a distributed cache. Recommended caches are APCu
and Redis. After installing and enabling your chosen memcache, verify that it is

APCu is faster at local caching than Redis. If you have enough memory, use APCu for Memory Caching
and Redis for File Locking. If you are low on memory, use Redis for both.

Redis configuration in Nextcloud (config.php)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For best performance, use Redis for file locking by adding this::
'memcache.locking' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
Additionally, you should use Redis for the distributed server cache::
'memcache.distributed' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
Further more, you could use Redis for the local cache like so, but it's not recommended (see warning below)::
'memcache.local' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
.. warning:: Using Redis for local cache on a multi-server setup can cause issues. Also, even on a single-server setup, APCu (see section above) should be faster.
When using Redis for any of the above cache settings, you also need to
specify either the ``redis`` or ``redis.cluster`` configuration in ``config.php``.
The following options are available to configure when using a single redis server (all but ``host`` and ``port`` are optional. For the latter two see next sections)::
'memcache.locking' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
'memcache.distributed' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
'memcache.local' =>'\OC\Memcache\Redis' ,
'redis' => [
// 'host' => see connection parameters below
// 'port' => see connection parameters below
'user' => 'nextcloud',
'password' => 'password',
'dbindex' => 0,
'timeout' => 1.5,
'read_timeout' => 1.5,
]
The following options are available to configure when using a redis cluster (all but ``seeds`` are optional)::
'memcache.locking' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
'memcache.distributed' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
'memcache.local' =>'\OC\Memcache\Redis' ,
'redis.cluster' => [
'seeds' => [ // provide some/all of the cluster servers to bootstrap discovery, port required

.. note:: The port is required as part of the server URL. However, it is not necesarry to list all servers: for example, if all servers are load balanced via the same DNS name, only that server name is required.
Connecting to single Redis server over TCP
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To connect to a remote or local Redis server over TCP use::
'redis' => [
'host' => 'redis-host.example.com',
'port' => 6379,

'ssl_context' => [
'local_cert' => '/certs/redis.crt',

'cafile' => '/certs/ca.crt',
'verify_peer_name' => false
]
]
Connecting to single Redis server over UNIX socket
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If you want to connect to Redis configured to listen on an Unix socket (which is
recommended if Redis is running on the same system as Nextcloud) use this example
``config.php`` configuration::
'memcache.local' => '\OC\Memcache\APCu',
'memcache.distributed' => '\OC\Memcache\Redis',
