Active-Active databases allow read and write operations in each copy. Each copy eventually reflects changes made in other copies ([eventual consistency]({{< relref "/glossary#eventual-consistency" >}})). Conflict-free data types (CRDTs) synchronize read and write operations between copies. CRDTs ensure consistency and resolve conflicts.

Active-Active databases use TLS to synchronize data between regions. You can also use TLS to encrypt client connections. See [Transport Layer Security (TLS)]({{< relref "/operate/rc/security/database-security/tls-ssl.md" >}}) for more information.

When developing for Active-Active databases, you need to consider some important differences. See [Develop applications with Active-Active databases]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/active-active/develop/_index.md" >}}) for related information.

## Transport Layer Security (TLS)

Redis Cloud supports [Transport Layer Security]({{< relref "/operate/rc/security/database-security/tls-ssl.md" >}}) (TLS) for database connections. TLS, often called "SSL", ensures the privacy of the TCP connection between your application and database. When client
authentication is enabled, TLS also ensures that those clients with an authorized key can connect to your Redis databases.
Redis Cloud supports [Transport Layer Security]({{< relref "/operate/rc/security/database-security/tls-ssl.md" >}}) (TLS) for database access. TLS, often called "SSL", ensures the privacy of the TCP connection between your application and database. When client
authentication is activated, TLS ensures that only clients with an authorized key can access to your Redis databases.

We strongly recommend enabling TLS for any application transmitting sensitive data across the wire.
