+# Telegraf Plugin: Redis
+
+### Configuration:
+
+```
+# Read Redis's basic status information
+[[inputs.redis]]
+  ## specify servers via a url matching:
+  ##  [protocol://][:password]@address[:port]
+  ##  e.g.
+  ##    tcp://localhost:6379
+  ##    tcp://:password@192.168.99.100
+  ##
+  ## If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
+  ## If no port is specified, 6379 is used
+  servers = ["tcp://localhost:6379"]
+```
+

+    - used_cpu_sys
+    - used_cpu_user
+    - used_cpu_sys_children
+    - used_cpu_user_children
+
+### Tags:
+
+- All measurements have the following tags:
+    - port
+    - server
+
+### Example Output:
+
+Using this configuration:
+```
+[[inputs.nginx]]
+  ## specify servers via a url matching:
+  ##  [protocol://][:password]@address[:port]
+  ##  e.g.
+  ##    tcp://localhost:6379
+  ##    tcp://:password@192.168.99.100
+  ##
+  ## If no servers are specified, then localhost is used as the host.
+  ## If no port is specified, 6379 is used
+  servers = ["tcp://localhost:6379"]
+```
+
+When run with:
+```
+./telegraf -config telegraf.conf -input-filter redis -test
+```
+
+It produces:
+```
