Arch Linux Is the Latest Distro Replacing Redis with Valkey

In NoSQL database news, Arch Linux 'is the latest Linux distribution replacing its Redis packages with the Valkey fork,' reports Phoronix.

Valkey is backed by the Linux Foundation, Google, Amazon Web Services, and Oracle, which the article points out is due to Redis's decision last year to shift the upstream Redis license from a BSD 3-clause to RSALv2 and SSPLv1.

Valkey is replacing Redis in the Arch Linux extra repository and after a two week period the Redis package will be moved out to AUR and receive no further updates. Users are encouraged to migrate to Valkey as soon as possible.
