Hedis stands for "Hyper Redis". It can retrieve data from ANY database directly and stores to itself.
Traditionally, application server retrieves hot data from in-memory database (like Redis) to reduce unnecessary paths. If in-memory database doesn't have specific data, application server gets back to retrieve data from original database.
Hedis can retrieve data from ANY database directly. Application server retrieves hot data from Hedis server, If Hedis server doesn't have specific data, Hedis retrieves data from original database via ANY connector.
