[Django]-How to use connection pooling for redis.StrictRedis?

Each Redis instance that you create in turn all instances will create their own connection pool.You can overwrite this behaviour by using the singleton design in Python as below:

import redis

class RedisOperation(object):
    def __new__(cls):
        if not hasattr(cls, 'instance'):
            pool = redis.ConnectionPool(host='localhost', port=6379, db=0)
            cls.instance=redis.StrictRedis(connection_pool=pool)
        return cls.instance

obj1=RedisOperation()
print(id(obj1))

obj2 = RedisOperation()
print(id(obj2))

Both above objects are referring to same redis connection pool.

For More details, please refer to redis docs
