Based on this thread, I'm not sure you would want to use this over keyspace notifications, but I will also say that there comes a point in the maturity of a system when keyspace notifications become a complicated, unreliable, resource-heavy nightmare. They work fine is your needs and scale are limited, but it's definitely not what you want if handling lots of frequent chances across craploads of keys, with complicated logic for who needs them and how they get routed to them, and where it matters if the notification is successfully received.

But certainly you could build something to handle these and most other needs in this realm with mostly just redis, using streams for what needs to be more robust, in tandem with pub/sub, keyspace notifs, etc. in the areas they are suited to.
