# dgraph vs go-redis

dgraph and go-redis share 5 technologies: OpenTelemetry, go.opentelemetry.io/otel, go.opencensus.io, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk, and Prometheus. Both are written in Go.

- [dgraph-io/dgraph](https://seerepo.com/r/dgraph-io/dgraph): high-performance graph database for real-time use cases
- [redis/go-redis](https://seerepo.com/r/redis/go-redis): Redis Go client

## What they share and what sets them apart

- In common: OpenTelemetry, go.opentelemetry.io/otel, go.opencensus.io, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/sdk, Prometheus
- Only in dgraph: net/http, Dgraph, MySQL, MCP, Kafka, github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/v5, github.com/go-jose/go-jose/v4, mcp-go, github.com/golang/glog, Docker, go.opentelemetry.io/contrib/instrumentation/google.golang.org/grpc/otelgrpc, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/exporters/otlp/otlptrace/otlptracehttp, go.uber.org/zap
- Only in go-redis: go-redis, Redis, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/metric, go.opentelemetry.io/otel/trace

| Activity | Last push November 3, 2026, 6,323 commits, 21,822 stars | Last push November 4, 2026, 2,438 commits, 22,287 stars |
| Tests | 306 test files. 55.9% of its code files have a test that imports them | 336 test files. 86.4% of its code files have a test that imports them |

- Size: Lines written by people and agents, without generated ones; code files, without tests.
- Who writes it: A commit counts as AI's when it carries its signature: a Co-Authored-By line, its author name or the merge of its branch.
- Activity: From GitHub and its history, on the day SeeRepo read it.
- Tests: The files that test the code, and the share of code files a test imports.
