This is such an impressive blend of semantic intent matching, smart API routing, and Redis-powered performance .
I love how you’ve managed to replace multiple systems (DB, search, analytics, streaming) with Redis 8 features while keeping everything blazing fast.
The demo-first approach with ephemeral keys is also a nice touch for hackathon mode.
Really creative work — this feels like something dev teams would actually use in production with a bit more polish! 💌

This is wild. Semantic intent, API routing, and Redis 8 all cranked to 11 . You somehow yeeted DB, search, analytics, and streaming into one thing, and then threw in ephemeral keys like “persistence is overrated.” Give it a little polish and people will be sneaking this into prod on a Friday.
