Simple Yet Powerful Architecture

The Redis Trigger node in n8n monitors Redis channels and activates your workflows when specified events occur:

1. Configure: Set up the Redis connection parameters within n8n
2. Listen: The node subscribes to your specified Redis channels or patterns
3. React: When matching messages are published, your workflow executes automatically
4. Process: Use n8n's 280+ integrations to connect Redis events to any system

This architecture means your workflows respond in real-time to Redis events without the overhead of constant polling or custom development, turning Redis into an active participant in your business automation strategy.
