Describe the solution you'd like

Current functionality with Redis as a backplane for ASP.NET Core SignalR scale-out is valuable and I think It would be beneficial to extend this functionality to support Garnet as an alternative backplane option

Have you tried it and hit issues?

Garnet supports many of the commands that Redis uses so can often "just work" if you replace the redis connection string with a Garnet one. Since SignalR primarily uses PUBSUB, which Garnet supports, there probably aren't any issues with using Garnet.

[amdnaji]

Sound great , but what if we want to use Garnet directly without rely on Redis.

[BrennanConroy]

You mean use GarnetClient instead of StachExchange.Redis.ConnectionMultiplexer? Then there'd need to be a new implementation of the SignalR backplane.

[amdnaji]

Yes ,that what I meant a new Client implementation for Garnet .

This is not something we're interested in pursuing at this point.
