.NET Application with Docker Compose, Redis, and PostgreSQL
This repository demonstrates the setup of a .NET application using Docker Compose, integrating Redis for caching and PostgreSQL for data management. This setup aims to enhance application performance and simplify database operations using containerization.
📋 Project Overview
This project includes:
Redis for caching to optimize application performance.
PostgreSQL as the primary database to handle data persistence.
Docker Compose to orchestrate and manage the containers, allowing easy setup and scalability.
🛠️ Services in the Docker Compose File
Redis Cache (speedupapi_redis):
Image: Custom-built from SpeedUpAPI_Redis/Dockerfile.
Purpose: Provides high-speed caching to reduce load times and improve response rates.
Ports: 5000, 5001.
PostgreSQL Database (products.database):
Image: postgres:latest.
Environment Variables:
POSTGRES_DB=products
POSTGRES_USER=postgres
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres
Volume Mount: ./.containers/product-db:/var/lib/postgresql/data to ensure persistent data storage.
Ports: 5432.
Standalone Redis Instance (product.redis):
Image: redis:latest.
Purpose: Used as an additional caching layer.
Restart Policy: Always restarts to maintain availability.
Ports: 6379.

📝 Configuration Details
Redis Configuration: Both Redis services are set up to handle caching, improving the data retrieval times for your application.
PostgreSQL Configuration: Configured to store application data with persistence enabled through Docker volumes.
📊 Data Persistence
PostgreSQL Data: Stored within ./.containers/product-db, ensuring data remains intact even if the container is restarted.
