About Valkey

A high-performance in-memory key-value data store forked from Redis, supporting strings, hashes, sets, sorted sets, streams and pub-sub, used for caching, session storage, queues and real-time analytics.

Typical users run it alongside existing workflows to cut manual effort, improve visibility and keep full control over data, configuration and upgrades over time.
