# In-Memory DB

With <code class="expression">space.vars.ionos\_cloud</code> DBaaS, you can quickly set up and manage In-Memory DB, an open-source, in-memory data structure store that stores key-values, and is compatible with the Redis® OSS API. This capability makes it a versatile choice for various applications such as databases, caches, message brokers, or streaming engines.

In-Memory DB delivers a fully managed service that combines an in-memory data store with a dynamic, real-time database. This combination leverages memory's rapid access speeds, ensuring high performance. It is particularly well-suited for frequently accessed data that rarely changes, resulting in significant reductions in load on central databases through efficient in-memory caching.

You can initiate In-Memory DB through the DCD, APIs or automation tools like Ansible and Terraform.
