As artificial intelligence gets more advanced, robots are increasingly used to free humans from the risks of inspecting dangerous locations or the drudgery of routine visual surveillance. To provide some degree of autonomous decision, the robot often has cameras connected to an onboard Linux computer such as an NVIDIA Jetson or x86 single-board computer (SBC).

Data consistency and availability across distributed systems is crucial, particularly in environments that rely heavily on replication. In Valkey, one critical aspect of this replication process is the replication backlog size. This configuration parameter is vital in managing how much data can be temporarily stored to accommodate replicas that may fall behind the master node.
