Managed Valkey

Managed Valkey: in-memory speed, open source forever.

Managed Valkey, the Linux Foundation fork of Redis, for caching, sessions, queues and pub/sub. Sub-millisecond reads, optional persistence, and every Redis client works unchanged.

Why managed Valkey

Everything Redis did, without the licence question.

Valkey is the community-governed Redis fork, drop-in compatible with the RESP protocol and every Redis client. Use it as a cache, a session store, a rate limiter, a job queue or a pub/sub bus, with sub-millisecond latency and no per-operation billing.

Redis-compatible
Same commands, same clients, RESP protocol.
Sub-ms reads
In-memory, with NVMe-backed persistence.
Eviction policies
LRU, LFU and TTL tuned per use case.
Persistence
RDB snapshots so a restart is not a cold cache.
Included on every plan

Everything a managed Valkey needs, included.

The operational layer ships with the cluster: protection, networking and observability are how it works, not add-ons.

High availability
Primary plus a standby with Sentinel-based automatic failover, +70% of the plan price.
Backups included
Nightly and on-demand RDB snapshots to S3; restore as a new instance or in place.
Scale without rebuilds
Move up the plan ladder as you grow; storage extends at $0.12 per GB.
TLS + IP allowlists
Encrypted in transit with scoped, per-app credentials.
Private networking
One-click private link to your Raff apps, $0 egress on the fabric.
Metrics & insights
Live metrics and slow-query insights in the console and CLI, free.
Versions & capabilities

Valkey vs Redis: same commands, open governance.

Valkey forked from Redis 7.2 under the Linux Foundation and keeps the protocol and command set. Existing Redis clients connect unchanged, so migrating is a hostname swap, and the licence stays BSD forever.

Migrate to managed Valkey with zero downtime.

Coming from Redis Cloud, ElastiCache, Upstash or a self-hosted instance? Continuous replication keeps Raff in sync while your source stays live; when lag reads zero you cut over in seconds. An engineer runs it with you, free.

FAQ

The questions switchers ask.

Yes. Valkey forked from Redis 7.2 and keeps the RESP protocol and command set, so redis-py, ioredis, Jedis, go-redis and the rest connect with no code changes. Point them at the Valkey host and go.

Valkey is the Linux Foundation fork created when Redis changed its licence. It keeps the same protocol, commands and performance profile, but stays BSD-licensed and community-governed. For your app it behaves like Redis; for your legal team it stays open source.

You can. Valkey can save its data to disk, so it survives restarts and failovers, and nightly plus on-demand snapshots cover recovery, restored as a new instance or in place. For pure caching, skip persistence and let eviction policies manage memory.

High availability adds a standby copy of your database that takes over automatically if the main one fails. It costs a fixed percentage of the plan price, from +70% depending on the database, and you see the full cost on the same single bill line before you turn it on.

One line per database: the database you chose and its size, for example Postgres 4 GB. Backups, networking, traffic and monitoring are already inside that price, there is no separate fee for any of them. If you turn on high availability, it adds a fixed percentage to that same line. The only extra line you can ever see is more storage, at a flat price per GB.

Yes, it is a standalone product. Connect from anywhere over TLS with IP allowlists and scoped credentials. If your app runs on Raff Apps, a one-click private link adds a private wire with $0 egress on top.
