# Redis exporter
>**Note:**
Available since [Omnibus GitLab 8.17][1118]. For installations from source
you'll have to install and configure it yourself.
The [Redis exporter] allows you to measure various [Redis] metrics. For more
information on what's exported [read the upstream documentation][redis-exp].
To enable the Redis exporter:
1. [Enable Prometheus](index.md#configuring-prometheus)
1. Edit `/etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb`
1. Find and uncomment the following line, making sure it's set to `true`:
```ruby
redis-exporter['enable'] = true
```
1. Save the file and [reconfigure GitLab][reconfigure] for the changes to
take effect
Prometheus will now automatically begin collecting performance data from
the Redis exporter exposed under `localhost:9121`.
