Redis and transformation data types

The Redis native type is binary-string for all supported Redis simple values. A Redis binary-string is a variable length array of bytes. You can map Redis binary-string type to the transformation data types, binary and string. Redis binary-string values are converted to and from transformation string data type values through UTF-8 encoding.

The following table describes the Redis data types that Data Integration supports and the corresponding transformation data types:

Redis Data Types	Transformation Data Types	Range and Description
String	Binary	Null values cause row errors in the target.
String	String	Null values cause row errors in the target.
