Set the the respective keys to the respective values. MSET will replace oldvalues with new values, while MSETNX will not perform any operation at alleven if just a single key already exists.

Because of this semantic MSETNX can be used in order to set different keysrepresenting different fields of an unique logic object in a way thatensures that either all the fields or none at all are set.

Both MSET and MSETNX are atomic operations. This means that for instanceif the keys A and B are modified, another client talking to Redis can eithersee the changes to both A and B at once, or no modification at all.

MSET Return value

Status code reply Basically +OK as MSET can't fail

MSETNX Return value

Integer reply, specifically:

1 if the all the keys were set
0 if no key was set (at least one key already existed)
