SignalR scaleout with Redis Cluster

Question

User1964052625 posted

I read the Microsoft documentation of SignalR and it says that:

SignalR scaleout with Redis does not support Redis clusters.

but the documentation is 06/10/2014. To date there is a solution to use the Redis backplane with a cluster redis? Or how could I solve the problem? Can I put a reverse proxy (HAProxy) in front of the redis cluster to make it work?? Some idea? Thank you

Hi Pampua84,

Welcome to ASP.NET forums.

As stated in documentation and this github issue, it seems that currently SignalR still does not support Redis Cluster. 

Besides, if possible, you can create a new github issue to consult if SignalR team has any plan for supporting Scaleout with Redis Cluster.

With Regards,

Is this useful for your cause:

public class Startup
{
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
    {
        // Any connection or hub wire up and configuration should go here
        GlobalHost.DependencyResolver.UseRedis("server", port, "password", "AppName");
        app.MapSignalR();
    }
}
