๐ Project Overview
I'm excited to share my submission for the Redis AI Challenge: an AI Content Moderation System that demonstrates Redis far beyond simple caching. This project showcases Redis as a complete real-time data platform powering intelligent applications.
๐ฏ Challenge Categories:
- Primary: Real-Time AI Innovators
- Secondary: Beyond the Cache
โจ What Makes This Special?
๐ Real-Time Processing at Scale
- Redis Streams handle thousands of content submissions per second
- Live Dashboard updates in real-time as content flows through the system
- Sub-second processing times from submission to moderation decision
๐ค Intelligent AI Decisions
- Multi-model analysis combining toxicity detection, spam filtering, and user reputation
- Confidence scoring with detailed reasoning for transparency
- Dynamic user tiers (Trusted โ Normal โ Watched โ Restricted)
๐ Beyond Caching - Multi-Model Redis
This project leverages Redis's full ecosystem:
- Redis Streams โ Real-time event processing pipeline
- Redis Hashes โ Structured user profiles and content metadata
- Redis Sorted Sets โ Dynamic reputation leaderboards
- Redis JSON โ Complex document storage and retrieval
- Redis TimeSeries โ Live analytics and performance monitoring
- Redis Search โ Vector similarity for coordinated attack detection
๐ฎ Interactive Demo Features
The system includes comprehensive demo scenarios:
Individual Content Testing
- Clean Content: "Beautiful sunset today! Great weather for hiking."
- Spam Content: "CLICK HERE FOR FREE MONEY!!! LIMITED TIME!!!"
- Toxic Content: Inappropriate messages requiring blocking
- Borderline Cases: Edge cases showing AI nuanced decision-making
Bulk Processing Scenarios
- Spam Attack Simulation: Generate 20-50 coordinated spam messages
- User Behavior Modeling: Realistic posting patterns with reputation changes
- Performance Testing: Process 1000+ items to showcase Redis scalability
