# Local Redis

The Superblocks data plane includes an embedded Redis service that runs in the container. Redis is used to cache the intermediate step outputs of APIs during execution. This Redis instance is not exposed externally by default and not configured for external network access.

Starting in data plane `v1.29.1`, the password for the local Redis user is set to a default value. We recommend setting this to a new value using the `SUPERBLOCKS_AGENT_REDIS_PASSWORD` environment variable (see [Additional configuration](/enterprise/hybrid-architecture/extend/additional-configuration) for deployment-specific settings).

Otherwise, you generally do not need to configure any Redis settings, as it is an internal implementation detail of the data plane.
