Redis is like a database that resides in memory. Memcached is very good at handling high traffic websites. Redis can not handle heavy traffic on read/write. Memcached stores variables in memory and retrieves data directly from server memory. It can read lot of information at a time and have a great response time.

There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA. For high traffic systems, processing the individual response times for each request may be too much work. However it’s very difficult to decide what the right SLA is, or to tell how close you are to exceeding it.
