About the proxy
In the cluster architecture and read/write splitting architecture of Tair (Redis OSS-compatible), proxy servers (proxy nodes) are responsible for routing, load balancing, and failover. A solid understanding of how proxy nodes route and handle specific commands can help you design more efficient business systems. For more information, see Tair Proxy features.
