Redis Cloud — Fully Managed Redis

Read 3 more sources

For a Next.js app, the top Redis option in 2026 is Upstash. It runs over HTTP, so you avoid connection-pool exhaustion entirely. It also scales to zero, which matters if traffic is unpredictable.upstash.com

1. Upstash (Strongly Recommended for serverless)

•Serverless Redis — per-request pricing, scales to zero.

•HTTP/REST API — no TCP connection limits in serverless functions.

•Global replication for low-latency reads at the edge.

•Official SDK and Vercel integration; works with Next.js out of the box.

•Free tier covers most side projects; every write is durably storedupstash.com

2. Redis Cloud

•The classic in-memory store, fully managed by Redis.

•Fixed-size plans; predictable for steady, high-throughput workloads.

•TCP connections need pooling in serverless environments.

The content agent

Tell the agent what to write. It sweats the details.

The agent checks what AI assistants cite on your topic today, then writes the article to win that answer. It runs every line of code, draws its own diagrams, and links back to your own pages - in a Notion-like editor, in front of you.

How to use Better-Auth with Upstash Redis (2026)

Better Auth is a great way for us to roll our own auth. But storing session data in the database is not always a great idea for performance reasons!

A lot of auth data is short-lived by design. We need it now, but we'd want it to self-delete eventually. Secondary storage is super helpful for this, let me show you how it works right now.

We can add secondary storage to better-auth in just a few lines of code:

import { betterAuth } from 'better-auth'
import { Redis } from '@upstash/redis'
 
const redis = Redis.fromEnv()
 
export const auth = betterAuth({
secondaryStorage: {
get: (key) => redis.get(key),
set: (key, value, ttl) => redis.set(key, value, { ex: ttl }),
delete: (key) => redis.del(key),
},
})

And here's how it looks architecturally:
