I've been using Valkey (and Redis before it) for years when building scripts or small apps to store a bit of data.
Even though I'm not storing a lot of data, it has always irked me that it needs to be in memory all the time.
Last night I found kvrocks, an Apache project, which provides a redis interface, but stores data on disk in rocksdb. Even better, it has "namespaces", so I can separate each app easily by credential.

We're almost there. That's the 1.0 alpha of valkey-swift released. Valkey-swift is the swift client for the key/value datastore Valkey.

Ended up kicking Docker Hardened Images to the curb.
The good folks at #Docker decided to update their #Redis image to use a distro-less start (no shell, no other utilities) *without changing the image tag*.
So when I started up my #Mastodon server after an upgrade, my customization script wouldn’t run in the container and I had to scramble to find an alternative.
Basically, they broke the contract of immutable image version tags. Won’t trust them again, even if it did harden #security further.
So this server is back to a good ol’ upstream #PostgreSQL image on #AlpineLinux. And #Valkey on #Alpine, too, because Redis Ltd..’s software licensing shenanigans are sketchy.
The #MSTDNDK Mastodon instance just migrated away from Bitnami's #Redis helm chart and container images to #Valkey.
#Bitnami and Redis both seem to be exiting the open source community, which could prevent us from staying current, meaning always running the latest versions of the software components that make up this instance.
We understand the need to monetize software, but see that as an opportunity to add premium paid features, not take away existing ones from open source. Doing so will make your potential future customers look for other solutions. Looking at you, #MinIO, Redis and Bitnami.
Please report any issues you might experience as a result of the move to Valkey. So far it looks peachy.
Хроники Valkey: сайдкары, операторы и один очень упрямый кластер
Привет! Меня зовут Никита Кречетов, я работаю в команде Datawave в юните DBA в Авито . В этой статье рассказываю, как мы перевели полторы тысячи инстансов Redis на Valkey Cluster, как отказались от ручного решардирования и что это дало разработчикам и бизнесу. Материал будет полезен инженерам, которые ищут практичный опыт миграции на новые базы данных.
This day just keeps on giving, now was a #ValKey container in my #synology 😅
#ValKey is just amazing, the capacity of this thing is huge and improves alot the applications.
This was the former #Redis, that still exists but this is a fork.
Woohoo! Another bit merged into #Valkey .
Timeline: I got super annoyed at something on Friday after lunch. A little needless barrier carried forward for years.
I thought about writing an issue but I looked at the code and thought "I can fix this."
First PR took about 30 mins, got feedback in an hour. Made the changes based on the feedback (~+20 minutes, once I got my bearings).
Then 6 reviews over the weekend and it was merged by 10am on Monday. Valkey 9.1 bound!
Has anyone found a reliable and well maintained FOSS helm chart for valkey that isn't tied to bitnami?
Migrated the database of my Mastodon instance burningboard.net from Linux to PostgreSQL+Valkey on FreeBSD (+zfs)
All looking perfectly fine :) Although there's quite a lot of activity, the AMD EPYC Rome system is pretty much idling with the load being at 0.28 🙂 :freebsd_logo:
#Valkey 9.0 Introduces Multi-Database Clustering, Atomic Slot Migration, and Major Performance Gains
https://www.infoq.com/news/2025/11/valkey-9-atomic-migration/
I am so excited to **not** be heading to Las Vegas today for #reInvent.
I have to admit it’s a bit strange to not go after going every year since 2017 (well, 2020 was virtual) but my upcoming travel schedule would have meant 3 weeks of solid travel and that’s… not humane.
If you are going, check out how #Valkey is buying out the Taco Bell Cantina on Tuesday for a giant party 😏

Миссия выполнима: как мы добились актуальности двух тысяч кешей
Привет! Меня зовут Влад, и я разрабатываю сердце витрины Ozon — сервис product-facade. Пару лет назад мы уже делились нашим опытом в этой статье , но с тех пор многое изменилось: выросли нагрузки, появились новые фичи и оптимизации, система стала сложнее и надёжнее. Прежде чем перейти непосредственно к актуальности кешей, давайте разберёмся, почему это так важно. Представьте: вы добавляете товар в корзину, но что-то пошло не так, и покупку совершить не удаётся — склад больше не возит в ваш ПВЗ. Даже 0.1% таких ошибок — это тысячи недовольных пользователей каждую секунду. А когда что-то массово меняется, разработчики вынуждены расследовать инцидент, чтобы понять, что проблема была всего лишь в устаревших кешах.

This time next week, I'm getting on a plane to Tokyo then on on to Beijing.
I have like 1 free day in each city and maybe some evenings, otherwise I'm doing #Valkey things at Open Source Summit Japan and Valkey Keyspace Beijing.
I've never been to east Asia. Any tips, highlights, or must-sees?
#Valkey 9.0 is now generally available!
This release brings:
• Atomic slot migrations
• Hash field expiration
• Full support for numbered databases in cluster mode
Valkey 9.0 enables scaling to 2,000 nodes and achieves over 1 billion requests per second!

Not me, however.
I’m working as normal this week and _not_ doing reinvent for the first time in 7 (!!) years.
But on Dec 5th, I’m jetting off to Tokyo for Open Source Summit Japan where I’ll co-presenting with @reconditerose on #Valkey
Then I head over to China for #Valkey Keyspace Beijing.
Then by the time I return (Dec 15) I’ll be done with 2025 for some much needed family time.

in 2018, #Redis Ltd., the company managing Redis development, licensed some modules under a modified Apache 2.0 with a Commons Clause.[26][27]
In 2024, the Redis company switched the licensing for the Redis core code repository from the BSD license to dual #SSPL and proprietary licensing.
Valkey is a drop-in replacement for Redis, so the existing #NixOS Nextcloud module's Redis configuration options can be leveraged

You may hate #nixos , you may like it, but you can't ignore it
