Deploying redis in a volume in an existing app

Questions / Help

I have a deployed Nextjs project. I want to set up a Redis instance in a volume and then access it internally from the Nextjs site i.e. it does not need to be exposed to the internet.

I have created a volume as per the docs with flyctl volumes create redis_server and added the following to the fly.toml file:

[mounts]
  source = "redis_server"
  destination = "/data"

I am not sure what to do beyond this. Docs are not as explicit for someone who is doing it for the first time.
How do I actually create the redis instance?
How do I access it in my Nextjs project?
