redis-server: Start Redis server, using the default port, as a background process.
$ redis-server --daemonize yes
try on your machine

The command "redis-server --daemonize yes" is used to start the Redis server in the background (daemon) mode.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "redis-server" is the command to start the Redis server.
  • "--daemonize" is a command line option that tells Redis to run in daemon mode as a background process.
  • "yes" is the value provided to the "--daemonize" option, indicating that Redis should be daemonized.

When the Redis server is started with the "--daemonize yes" option, it detaches itself from the terminal session and continues running as a background process. This allows the server to operate independently without being tied to a specific terminal session.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
