I'll consider that your concern is performance and you mean "Which is faster?".

The short answer is "PhpRedis".

PhpRedis is a PHP extension (written in C) and Predis is a PHP package (written in PHP).

Based on many benchmarks like the mentioned link below, PhpRedis is about 6 times faster than Predis. It's recommended to use PhpRedis if performance is a concern to your service.

It is worth noting that aside from library performance considerations, PHPRedis is presently lagging behind Predis in adding Redis 7 feature support (which I was looking for), so timing of your project implementation can also be a factor.
