I don't think that Oban is telling you to always use Redis. I think what they're saying is if you reach a certain scale where you're feeling the pain of the default notifier you could use Oban.Notifiers.PG as long as your application is running as a cluster. If you don't run it as a cluster, then you might have to reach for Redis. But then it's more about not running a cluster.

It does scale. It is your companies choice not to cluster your application. Redis is not needed. It is a choice if you don’t want to cluster your app.
