    Hi – I was looking at this plugin at the beginning of the year for storing user session data in Redis (and not in the file system). Is that still supported?

    Thanks.

    Hello Jonathan,

    Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to assist you with this.
    W3 Total Cache supports the usage of Redis as a memory-based option. So yes Redis is naturally supported.
    In order to use Redis in W3 Total Cache, and since W3TC only recognizes the PHP modules, you need to install PHP Redis module
    I hope this helps and let me know if you have any other questions.

    Thanks!

    Ok thanks. Is the default session location the file system (/tmp)? I’ve heard reference to the ‘usermeta’ table so wasn’t sure if that is where user session is stored.

    I plan to use AWS EC2 auto-scaling and want to make sure users stay logged in, etc. when a web server (EC2) is terminated, reboots, etc.

    Thanks!
