Redis has announced a major change to its licensing model, shifting from the BSD license to dual licenses, the Redis Source Available License and the Server Side Public License. This change prompted major cloud providers, including AWS and Google Cloud, to create a fork named Valkey from Redis 7.2.4. While both technologies share similarities, Valkey 8.0 introduces performance enhancements in set operations, leading to an increasing divergence in features and capabilities between them.
Redis has transitioned to a dual-licensed model, shifting away from its previous BSD license and prompting cloud giants like AWS and Google to fork it into Valkey.
The launch of Valkey marks a significant divergence from Redis, with new optimizations that boost performance, especially regarding set operations, illustrating the fork's dynamic evolution.
