Description

Valkey is an open-source in-memory data structure store and a 1:1 drop-in replacement for Redis. After Redis switched to SSPL/RSALv2 (March 2024), Valkey was launched under the Linux Foundation umbrella and remains BSD-3-Clause licensed. It supports strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets, streams, pub/sub, replication, cluster mode, and is fully compatible with Redis clients and tools.
