Learn how to manage clustering and how to use hashing policies to manage the process.\n\n- [Data eviction policies](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rc/databases/configuration/data-eviction-policies): Data eviction policies control what happens when new data exceeds the memory limits of a database. Learn the available policies and how to control them.\n\n- [Data persistence](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rc/databases/configuration/data-persistence): Data persistence enables recovery in the event of memory loss or other catastrophic failure. Learn which options are available and how to apply specific settings to individual databases.\n\n- [High availability and replication](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rc/databases/configuration/high-availability): Replication allows for automatic failover and greater fault tolerance. It can prevent data loss in the event of a hardware or zone failure.  Learn which options are available for Redis Cloud subscriptions.\n\n- [Advanced Capabilities](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rc/databases/configuration/advanced-capabilities): Advanced capabilities extend Redis database functionality by adding new data types and options.
