I've been reviewing the #Valkey docs before publishing them. They were inherited from that other project and the neglect is pretty wild.

Here is my favourite so far.

A linked example that has been public for 14+ years with a note that it's been broken since 2010 (because of Chrome 6).

Just switched my #SelfHosted #PeerTube instance from using #Redis to #Valkey now that it has a stable release out as a #Docker #container too, and.. that went too easily 😅. I know this makes sense as it is 100% compatible, but it still feels quite amazing to have it just work.
In case it helps; I just switched to using the valkey/valkey:7-alpine image, and because I also renamed things in my docker-compose I added PEERTUBE_REDIS_HOSTNAME=valkey to the PeerTube .env file too. That's it!

My first article in #Fedora magazine on moving to #Valkey has been published!

You should check it out if you're currently on #Redis and looking to move to something with an #OpenSource future.

Whats your favorite?

Is going to support ? I would guess not?

Inc appears to be in complete control of the library, I don't see why they'd support forks they're hostile to:

Interested in and want to help the project with a non-code but super important contribution?

There is an open call for colour pallet submissions:

https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-io.github.io/issues/55

This pallet will be used as the basis for all sorts of things: the non-placeholder website, tee-shirts, merch, giveaways, booth decorations, etc.

Both developers and customers are leaving Redis behind and moving to the new fork.

Remember I said the community will gather behind a fork to keep it , and that is a strong candidate?

It's continuing to gain momentum, and just added more major corp partners incl. Aiven, Alibaba Cloud, Chainguard, Heroku, Huawei, Percona, and Verizon. Check out the @linuxfoundation announcement here: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/press/valkey-community-announces-release-candidate-amid-growing-support-for-open-source-data-store

is also going full steam, reaching GENERAL AVAILABILITY just a couple of weeks after the fork announcement:

Today more companies are announcing their support of the Valkey community (the group that includes committed developers previously working on the OSS version of the core Redis engine): Aiven, Alibaba Cloud, Chainguard, Heroku, Huawei, Percona, and Verizon.

Off to Austin for @TexasLinuxFest!

I’ve got two (very different) talks:

The first ever conference talk on #Valkey and one about container Linux (featuring #BottlerocketOS and several other great distros).

After Austin I fly directly to Seattle for #OpenSourceSummit where I’ll be at the Valkey booth Tuesday to Thursday next week.

If you’re around at either event let’s connect!

YARF! Yet Another Redis Fork.

In today's edition we have Valkey! Valkey is backed by the Linux Foundation and a large number of Redis contributors have moved to Valkey.

Packages are built for Fedora and EPEL.

The whole Redis fiasco has resulted in Valkey emerging which will likely leave Redis behind with MongoDB and MySQL which were also taken over by companies which tried to monetize them. Long story short, a VC back company assumed control of the Redis project which was Open Source and promised the project creator to keep it that way, but broke that promise. It has been forked and major cloud companies are funding the fork which is called Valkey. #Redis #Valkey

I published a blog post on at AWS.

" broke with the community that helped it grow and left them stranded. This community is now unbound and will continue to use and contribute to the project as they have always done, and with more freedom. "

"The @linuxfoundation
chose community over sponsors,"
@peterzaitsev said. "I was excited to see it just took days. It was like, boom: 'Redis, you choose to [mess with] the community, then Linux Foundation stands behind community.' I think that was wonderful."

Fork it, ship it (?)

「Industry participants, including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, Oracle, Ericsson, and Snap Inc. are supporting Valkey. They are focused on making contributions that support the long-term health and viability of the project so that everyone can benefit from it」

As far as I'm concerned, Redis has been renamed to Valkey, while Redis Ltd. has created a non-free fork and confusingly named it "Redis".
