Additional dependencies

• Jedis requires Apache Commons Pool 2 for connection-pooling.
• Redisson requires Netty, the JCache API and Project Reactor as basic dependencies.

Programming model

• Jedis is a low-level driver exposing Redis API as Java method calls:

Jedis jedis = …;jedis.set("key", "value");List
    
      values = jedis.mget("key", "key2", "key3");
    

• Redisson is a high-level client, each call invokes one or more Redis calls, some of them are implemented with Lua (Redis "Scripting").

Redisson redisson = …RMap map = redisson.getMap("my-map"); // implement java.util.Mapmap.put("key", "value");map.containsKey("key");map.get("key");

Scalability

• Jedis uses blocking I/O and method calls are synchronous. Your program flow is required to wait until I/O is handled by the sockets. There's no asynchronous (Future, CompletableFuture) or reactive support (Reactive Streams Publisher). Jedis client instances are not thread-safe hence they require connection-pooling (Jedis-instance per calling thread).
• Redisson uses non-blocking I/O and an event-driven communication layer with netty. Connections are pooled, but the API itself is thread-safe and requires fewer resources. you can even operate on a single connection. That's the most efficient way when working with Redis.

Client implementation

• Jedis gives you full control over the commands you invoke and the resulting behavior. 较底层，可塑性强，high-level features要自己实现。
• Using Redissons high-level features means that you can use objects without the need of knowing they are backed by Redis (Map, List, Set, …)。省的自己去实现轮子。

总结：Redisson supports all the things Jedis supports and provides read strategies for Master/Slave setups, has improved support for AWS ElastiCache. 另外有。。。
