+# Role: svc-db-redis
+
+## Description
+
+This Ansible role provides a Jinja2 snippet to inject a Redis service definition into your Docker Compose setup. It renders a `service.yml.j2` template that defines a `redis` container with sensible defaults.
+
+## Overview
+
+The role’s `service.yml.j2` template includes:
+
+- An Alpine-based Redis image (`redis:alpine`)
+- Container naming based on `application_id` (defaults to `redis`)
+- Restart policy
+ 
+- Journald logging driver
+- A named volume (`redis:/data`) for persistence
+- A basic healthcheck using `redis-cli ping`
+- Attachment to the default network
+
+Include this snippet in your top-level `docker-compose.yml.j2` where you want Redis to appear.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Configurable `application_id`**  
+  Sets container name (`{{ application_id }}-redis`).
+
+- **Restart policy**  
+  Controlled by `docker_restart_policy`.
+
+- **Journald logging**  
+  Ensures logs are captured by systemd’s journal.
+
+- **Persistent storage**  
+  Declares and mounts `redis:/data`.
+
+- **Built-in healthcheck**  
+  Uses `redis-cli ping` with configurable intervals and retries.
