Explaining the caveats in writing to the same key with a workaround example
Ticket: https://redislabs.atlassian.net/browse/RDSC-5181
Note
Low Risk
Low risk because this PR only updates documentation, adding guidance around delete behavior when multiple RDI jobs write to the same Redis key.
Overview
Clarifies a key caveat when multiple RDI jobs write to the same Redis key: deletes from any source entity can remove the entire target key.
Adds a new transform example,
redis-write-same-key.md, showing a workaround that usesrow_format: fullandopcode/payload transforms to treat deletes as updates and merge nulls into Redis JSON to remove only the deleted entity’s fields while keeping the shared document intact.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 9d6287d.
