# Redis Installation
## Install Redis
[Redis](https://redis.io/) is an in-memory key-value store which NetBox employs for caching and queuing. This section entails the installation and configuration of a local Redis instance. If you already have a Redis service in place, skip to [the next section](3-netbox.md).
!!! note
NetBox v2.9.0 and later require Redis v4.0 or higher. If your distribution does not offer a recent enough release, you will need to build Redis from source. Please see [the Redis installation documentation](https://github.com/redis/redis) for further details.
### Ubuntu
```no-highlight
sudo apt install -y redis-server
```
### CentOS
```no-highlight
sudo yum install -y redis
sudo systemctl start redis
sudo systemctl enable redis
```
You may wish to modify the Redis configuration at `/etc/redis.conf` or `/etc/redis/redis.conf`, however in most cases the default configuration is sufficient.
## Verify Service Status
Use the `redis-cli` utility to ensure the Redis service is functional:
```no-highlight
$ redis-cli ping
PONG
```
