What you can build with Valkey
Cache and real-time data
Place Valkey in front of your database and respond to the same queries in less than a millisecond.Counters, leaderboards, rate limiting, and sessions are managed with a single command such as
ZADD or EXPIRE, rather than having to implement them in your application code.Message broker
Pub/Sub, Streams, and consumer groups connect your services without adding a broker to your stack.Search, JSON and vectors
Store JSON documents, perform full-text searches and use vector similarity search for your AI features.Enable the required modules from your service configuration, at no additional cost.
A drop-in replacement for Redis®*
Valkey uses the same protocol and commands as Redis. Simply direct your existing Redis client to it and everything will work.The entire service operates under the permissive BSD 3-Clause licence and is supported by the Linux Foundation.
