How to install Redis server on Ubuntu Linux 16.04

To install Redis, a popular open-source in-memory data structure store, on Ubuntu 16.04, follow these steps:

1. Update the package manager's package list:

sudo apt update

2. Install Redis by running the following command:

sudo apt install redis-server

This will install the Redis server and any dependencies required.

3. Enable the Redis service to start automatically at boot time by running the following command:

sudo systemctl enable redis-server

4. Start the Redis service by running the following command:

sudo systemctl start redis-server

5. To check the status of the Redis service, run the following command:

This will show you whether the service is running, and provide other information about the service.

Once the installation is complete and the service is running, you can use Redis to store and retrieve data in real-time on your Ubuntu 16.04 system.
