• EX seconds – Set the specified expire time, in seconds.
• PX milliseconds – Set the specified expire time, in milliseconds.
• EXAT timestamp-seconds – Set the specified Unix time at which the key will expire, in seconds.
• PXAT timestamp-milliseconds – Set the specified Unix time at which the key will expire, in milliseconds.
• PERSIST – Remove the time to live associated with the key.
