Practical example: Building a session timeout feature
- [Instructor] To show you that behavior, let's think of a practical use case. Let's figure out how to build a session timeout feature for a web application just using Redis. Let's assume we have a web application and we want to make sure that the user's session ends after a certain time. The workflow will be on every request, we should check if the user is logged in. If they are, then we'll check if the session is still valid. Once the session expires, we need to remove the user login flat and we can do all of these with Redis.
