  "content": "You can connect to Redis Enterprise Software databases programmatically using client libraries.\n\n## Redis client libraries\n\nTo connect an application to a Redis database hosted by Redis Enterprise Software, use a [client library](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/clients) appropriate for your programming language.\n\nYou can also use the `redis-cli` utility to connect to a database from the command line.\n\nFor examples of each approach, see the [Redis Enterprise Software quickstart](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rs/installing-upgrading/quickstarts/redis-enterprise-software-quickstart).\n\nNote: You cannot use client libraries to configure Redis Enterprise Software.  Instead, use:\n\n- The Redis Enterprise Software [Cluster Manager UI](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rs/installing-upgrading/quickstarts/redis-enterprise-software-quickstart)\n- The [REST API](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rs/references/rest-api)\n- Command-line utilities, such as [`rladmin`](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rs/references/cli-utilities/rladmin)\n\n### Discovery service\n\nWe recommend the following clients when using a [discovery service](https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/rs/databases/durability-ha/discovery-service) based on the Redis Sentinel API:\n\n- [redis-py](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/clients/redis-py) (Python client)\n- [StackExchange.Redis](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/clients/dotnet) (.NET client)\n- [Jedis](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/clients/jedis) (synchronous Java client)\n- [Lettuce](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/clients/lettuce) (asynchronous Java client)\n- [go-redis](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/clients/go) (Go client)\n- [Hiredis](https://github.com/redis/hiredis) (C client)\n\nIf you need to use another client, you can use [Sentinel Tunnel](https://github.com/RedisLabs/sentinel_tunnel)\nto discover the current Redis master with Sentinel and create a TCP tunnel between a local port on the client and the master.\n\n",
