Heroku Redis vs Redis To Go: What are the differences?

Developers describe Heroku Redis as "Reliable and powerful Redis as a service". Heroku Redis is an in-memory key-value data store, run by Heroku, that is provisioned and managed as an add-on. Heroku Redis is accessible from any language with a Redis driver, including all languages and frameworks supported by Heroku. On the other hand, Redis To Go is detailed as "Simple Redis hosting". Redis To Go was created to make the managing Redis instances easier, whether it is just one instance or serveral. Deploying a new instance of Redis is dead simple, whether for production or development.

Heroku Redis and Redis To Go can be categorized as "Redis Hosting" tools.

    Redis Cloud

Your dataset is constantly replicated, so if a node fails, an auto-switchover mechanism guarantees data is served without interruption.
    Firebase
    Firebase is a cloud service designed to power real-time, collaborative applications. Simply add the Firebase library to your application to gain access to a shared data structure; any changes you make to that data are automatically synchronized with the Firebase cloud and with other clients within milliseconds.
    Google Cloud Memorystore
    Cloud Memorystore for Redis provides a fully managed in-memory data store service built on scalable, more secure, and highly available infrastructure managed by Google. Use Cloud Memorystore to build application caches that provides sub-millisecond data access. Cloud Memorystore is compatible with the Redis protocol, allowing easy migration with zero code changes.
