Question

Are there any existing efforts which fake a Redis server as a special type of MySQL engine?

For example:

CREATE TABLE key_value_pairs (
    id INT, 
    name VARCHAR(30), 
    VALUE VARCHAR(200)
) ENGINE = REDIS;

So data could be directly JOIN‘ed together, or doing all kind of calculations and transformations under SQL queries.

Or something act behind MySQL-Proxy?

Does something similar exist?

Thanks in advance!
