As it stands now Avian requires that Redis be accessible. In nearly all cases of production and scale, this is the obvious choice, but out of the box, Avian will complain if it can't find Redis locally running and accessible. We'd like to have an out of the box solution for getting people started, and as they grow their app they can move over to using more powerful caching databases like Redis, maybe even memcached.
