What this means for you

This affects everyone who uses Redis, however you use it.

Ways out

  • Upgrade to a newer supported Redis releaseLow effort

    Stays on Redis with continued support and the least change to your setup.

  • ValkeyMedium effort

    Open-source, Redis-compatible fork that can replace Redis with few changes.

  • DragonflyMedium effort

    Redis-compatible in-memory store, if you want to leave Redis entirely.

What the source doesn't say

  • Which newer Redis release is the recommended upgrade target.
  • Whether the end of life means security fixes as well as bug fixes stop.
  • Whether managed Redis services follow the same date for 8.0.
