Laravel Multi Tenant Redis

By default Laravel's Redis cache store will empty the entire Redis database when running php artisan cache:clear. This can be a problem when you are running multiple applications on the same Redis instance. Laravel's "fix" for this is to change the Redis database for each application. This really isn't a solution as using different Redis databases aren't really recommended.

That is where this package comes in. It is a drop in replacement for the Redis cache store. It keeps track of the keys added to cache so that only the keys for the application will be deleted on a cache flush.

Before installing it would be a good idea to clear the application cache.
