A couple of days back, I was debating with one of my friend, about DEL vs UNLINK redis command. An interesting take; I come across that the majority of the people seemed to believe is "DEL is a blocking command. while UNLINK is non-blocking - so UNLINK is better". It's somewhat true - but it's not the full story.
So as an engineer, I unnecessarily dug into the Redis codebase to see the actual implementation.
