Recently viewed products is a very common feature in Ecommerce.
Showing users a list of products they viewed is considered to increase conversion.
The least complex way of implementing this kind of list can be in Redis.
Gem Kredis allows us to associate a Redis attribute with an ActiveRecord model.
We will store and update the list of recently visited products in Redis and associate it with our Current user.
