Valkey

The open-source Valkey project, launched after Redis changed its license, marks two years of development and is now charting its course toward a 10.0 release. The milestone article reflects on the project's growth since its fork and outlines upcoming technical direction. Developers are discussing how quickly the community-backed alternative has matured into a widely used in-memory data store.

Percona has unveiled an open source bridge connecting Valkey with proxy layers, extending its portfolio of database infrastructure tools. Valkey is the open source fork of Redis that emerged after Redis changed its licensing, and tools around it have drawn attention from developers migrating away. Details on features, compatibility and availability remain limited beyond the announcement itself.

Database software firm Percona has announced Valkey-proxy, a new open source project designed to help enterprises migrate their systems to Valkey, the open source replacement for Redis that emerged after Redis changed its licensing. The tool aims to simplify the transition for companies running large-scale production environments, letting them move workloads with fewer configuration changes.
