SleekView Charts for Redis Object Cache
SleekView Charts reads the Redis INFO output the plugin already exposes plus a sampled time series. Hit rate, memory used and key-space distribution become Number, Pie, Bar and Area cards inside WP Admin.

INFO is rich. The admin page is not.
Redis Object Cache, the Till Krüss free plugin, gives WordPress a drop-in object cache backed by Redis. The settings page surfaces a status pill, a few configuration fields and a copy of the latest INFO snapshot. The snapshot is dense and accurate, and that is exactly the problem: a wall of key-value pairs is the right format for a developer reading once, and the wrong format for a team that wants to see hit rate move week over week.
SleekView Charts samples the same INFO output on a schedule and renders it as configurable chart cards. A Number card pins hit rate. A Pie splits keys by database. A Bar groups ops per second by command family (GET, SET, DEL, EXPIRE). An Area trends used memory over time so cache pressure shows up before an OOM event.
Nothing about the live cache path changes. Front-end requests keep going to Redis the same way they did before. The plugin's settings page still exists for live debugging. SleekView Charts adds the longitudinal reporting layer that the free plugin deliberately leaves out.

Comparison
Default Redis Object Cache page vs SleekView Charts
Default Redis Object Cache page
- Settings page shows a single INFO snapshot, not a time series
- No persistent sampling, so trends require external dashboards
- Keyspace and command stats display as raw text rather than charts
- Cache health lives in its own admin page, away from other reports
- No read-only share or CSV export of the cache state
SleekView Charts
- KPI card for hit rate across the latest sample window
- Pie of total keys split by Redis database index
- Bar of ops per second ranked by command family
- Area trend of used memory over time for leak detection
- Sampled history persisted in a custom table for week-over-week reviews
Features
What SleekView Charts gives you for Redis Object Cache
Persistent INFO history
Redis Object Cache shows a snapshot. SleekView shows a month. Sampled rows live in a custom table so hit rate, keys, ops and memory stay readable across deployments.
Filters span table and chart
Filter to a specific command family, database index or sample window, and both the chart cards and the underlying table view stay in sync on the same dataset.
Share a read-only snapshot
Send a stakeholder a URL of the cache-health dashboard or export the filtered set to CSV. Capacity reviews get a measurable picture instead of a screenshot of the settings page.
Audience
Who builds Redis Object Cache charts dashboards with SleekView
Hosting and DevOps
Track hit rate and used memory on a longitudinal chart so capacity reviews talk about trends rather than yesterday's snapshot, and so a memory leak surfaces in hours, not in an OOM incident.
Plugin and theme leads
Watch ops per command family to spot a plugin that abuses SET or DEL, then change its caching strategy with a real number to defend the refactor in code review.
Agency operations
Give clients a read-only cache-health dashboard so they can see the upside of running Redis without learning to read the INFO output themselves.
The bigger picture
Why a free Redis plugin still deserves a dashboard
Redis Object Cache is a remarkably well-built free plugin, and the choice to keep its admin surface minimal is part of why it stays installed across hundreds of thousands of sites. The cost of that minimalism is that the admin page is essentially read-only INFO output: brilliant for a developer doing one-shot debugging, useless for a performance review that needs to talk about trends. Hit rate over months.
Memory pressure across releases. Command-family mix as new plugins join the stack. Key-space drift after a major migration.
None of that is visible from a single INFO snapshot, and most teams end up exporting numbers into a spreadsheet by hand or wiring up an external monitoring stack that nobody on the editorial side can read. SleekView Charts reads the same INFO output the plugin already exposes, samples it on a schedule and renders it as Number, Pie, Bar and Area cards next to the rest of WP Admin. The cache keeps doing the hard part.
The team gets a place to read the result.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Charts for Redis Object Cache
The Redis INFO output, accessed through the same client connection Redis Object Cache configures, and a sampled history written into a custom WordPress table. No separate credentials and no parallel connection pool are introduced.
No. Redis Object Cache is free, and SleekView Charts only needs the INFO output the plugin already reads on its settings page. There is no premium API and no commercial-only data source involved on the Redis side.
Configurable. Default is every five minutes, with cron-based collection that keeps overhead small. High-resolution dashboards can sample every minute, while sites that only need long-term trends can sample hourly to keep the custom table small.
No measurably. Each sample is a single INFO call and a single insert. The cache fill and read paths used by WordPress are unchanged, and front-end visitors see no difference.
Yes. Group by sample_time with an Area or Line card and an Average or Maximum aggregation on used_memory_bytes to see used memory per hour, day or week. Useful for catching a slow leak before maxmemory triggers eviction storms.
Yes. Any filtered set behind a chart card exports as CSV with the same columns the underlying table view shows. DevOps teams use this for capacity reviews and post-mortems involving cache behaviour.
Yes. Redis Object Cache is typically network-active and shares the cache across all subsites. SleekView samples cache metrics at the install level, and multisite dashboards render fine because the underlying cache is shared by design.
No. The settings page stays for live status checks and the INFO dump. SleekView Charts adds longitudinal reporting and a place to embed cache health next to the rest of the site's data, which the settings page deliberately does not try to be.
