Analytics Pipeline

High-performance analytics with Redis counters and periodic database flush.

When to Use This Skill

• Need high-throughput event tracking (thousands/second)
• Want real-time counters without database bottlenecks
• Building dashboards with time-series data
• Tracking user activity, feature usage, or page views

Core Concepts

Write to Redis for speed, flush to PostgreSQL for persistence. Redis handles high write throughput, periodic workers batch-flush to the database.
