in reply to Valkey and Redis support

hippo can you please describe or link to the hokey-cokey you are referring to? I know there's a paid version of Redis and an "open-source" version that is the one I believe we use at $work, is something changing about that?

Thanks.

    In essence, Redis was always open source until about a year and a half ago when suddenly it wasn't any more. Then the last open source version was forked to Valkey. Now Redis has realised the error of their ways and it is now open source once again. There's a fair summary of the whole mess at the start of this Register article.

      Thanks.
