Redis CEO Rowan Trollope blogs that MongoDB, Elastic and Redis all adopted SSPL to protect their business from cloud providers extracting value without reinvesting. But there was a downside, Trollope saying: “This achieved our goal—AWS and Google now maintain their own fork—but the change hurt our relationship with the Redis community. SSPL is not truly open source because the Open Source Initiative clarified it lacks the requisites to be an OSI-approved license.” So Redis is adding the OSI-approved AGPL as an additional licensing option for Redis, starting with Redis 8, which is now GA.

Redis 8 has support for vector sets, and integrates Redis Stack technologies, including JSON, Time Series, probabilistic data types, Redis Query Engine and more into core Redis 8 under AGPL. It provides over 30 performance improvements with up to 87 percent faster commands and 2x throughput. Trollope says it is: “Improving community engagement, particularly with client ecosystem contributions.”
