We’re thrilled to announce that Redis 8 is now available through the VSHN Application Catalog – and this release is a special one: Redis is officially open source again!
But that’s not all: Redis is now also available on Servala – the open, cloud-native service hub operated by VSHN, connecting developers, software vendors, and cloud providers across multiple infrastructures.
Why This Is a Big Deal
For years, Redis has been one of the most popular in-memory databases for developers and DevOps teams alike. However, licensing changes in previous versions created friction for open ecosystems and cloud-native users. With version 8, that’s finally changing: Redis has returned to its open source roots, now licensed under the GNU AGPLv3.
“Redis 8 brings Redis back to its open source roots. All future development of Redis will happen under the AGPLv3 license.”

This means greater transparency, broader collaboration, and long-term sustainability for users who rely on Redis as a key part of their stack.
