+# Configuring Redis for scaling
+
+Based on your infrastructure setup and how you have installed GitLab, there are
+multiple ways to configure Redis.
+
+You can choose to install and manage Redis and Sentinel yourself, use a hosted
+cloud solution, or you can use the ones that come bundled with the Omnibus GitLab
+packages so you only need to focus on configuration. Pick the one that suits your needs.
+
+## Redis replication and failover using Omnibus GitLab
+
+This setup is for when you have installed GitLab using the
+[Omnibus GitLab **Enterprise Edition** (EE) package](https://about.gitlab.com/install/?version=ee).
+
+Both Redis and Sentinel are bundled in the package, so you can it to set up the whole
+Redis infrastructure (primary, replica and sentinel).

+
+## Redis replication and failover using the non-bundled Redis
+
+This setup is for when you have installed GitLab using the
+[Omnibus GitLab packages](https://about.gitlab.com/install/) (CE or EE),
+or installed it [from source](../../install/installation.md), but you want to use
+your own external Redis and sentinel servers.

+
+## Standalone Redis using Omnibus GitLab
+
+This setup is for when you have installed the
+[Omnibus GitLab **Community Edition** (CE) package](https://about.gitlab.com/install/?version=ce)
+to use the bundled Redis, so you can use the package with only the Redis service enabled.
