I am very new to redis and this has always made me curious.

I am using a single redis client connection in nodejs (npm's redis package) which is included in each of my files.

Say for eg : File a.js is used for reading from mysql and inserting the data into redis hash ,file b.js reads from redis hash and outputs the result.

Now in a production environment i have a large numbers of request ming to b.js files which serves the content and in between i have a few request being made to a.js files to update the contents on the fly.

I want to know if a request to a.js slows down the already running redis connection in b.js.

Redis is single threaded, so if it's busy writing data, your reads will be delayed.

You'll find more information in this SO answer: Redis is single-threaded, then how does it do concurrent I/O?

Redis is single threaded then there is no concurrent read/write. If there are 2 client connection sending mand to the redis they will be queued.

Then yes if a.js send a lot of mands to the Redis, b.js mands will be inserted between a.js mands

No, the connection will not be slow down. What will slow down is the response time from redis. But I doubt you will notice as we are talking about a few micro-seconds per request.
