44s Documentation
Welcome to 44s — cloud infrastructure that's 5-436× faster than the competition.
Quickstart
Get started with 44s in 30 seconds:
1. Get your API key
Sign up at 44s.io to get your API key.
2. Connect with Redis CLI
redis-cli -h api.44s.io -p 6379
AUTH your_api_key
SET mykey "hello world"
3. Read it back
GET mykey
# Returns: "hello world"
That's it! You're using infrastructure that's 450× faster than Redis — with the same Redis protocol you already know.
Authentication
All API requests require authentication via the X-API-Key header:
X-API-Key: your_api_key
For S3-compatible endpoints, you can also use standard AWS signature auth.
