Redis license change

Seems to be the future of successful projects that started as open-source and that have been exploited heavily by the likes of Amazon, Google, and other cloud providers. -

"Open Core" a.k.a. "Fauxpen Source" was long bewailed by RMS. He calls it "disgusting".
I was just pondering this topic actually, looking at a lot of models coming out for AI. So many a not using Free licences, it is quite a disappointment.
Think about that famous photo of the bullet going through the apple or the National Geographic cover of the mountain girl with the eyes. Ever since those days, anybody with a camera (and there have been many!) has opted for non-Free licencing of their pictures, in the forlorn dream of hitting the jackpot and making bank on a photo like that. All that content, which never really had the remotest chance of earning money, was non-Free and basically excluded from use in our culture.

is the future of open-source redis with Valkey ? https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey
the Linux Foundation announced its intent to form Valkey, an open source alternative to the Redis in-memory, NoSQL data store

They take free open source software and offer ready-made SaaS instances against a fee - without paying the software creators a penny.
See some background at https://www.elastic.co/blog/why-license-change-aws -
I saw today that Fedora Linux is targeting deprecation of Redis[1] in favour of Valkey due to licensing. That’s not entirely surprising given Fedora’s ethos on non-free software.
As Cloudron only officially supports Ubuntu, and I don’t know what Canonical’s plans are wrt Redis, I don’t expect what Fedora does is a guidance to the Cloudron team. However, given that Redis is a core component for Cloudron I’m wondering if there are any plans to move to Valkey, as Fedora Linux 41 plans to.

Saw this (via the excellent https://selfh.st/ newsletter) and thought of this thread:

There are a few no-code changes; drop-in replacements for Redis:
- KeyDB - https://github.com/Snapchat/KeyDB
- DragonFly - https://github.com/dragonflydb/dragonfly
Another capable option is:
Hazelcast - https://github.com/hazelcast/hazelcastMy question is what would suit Multi-Cloudron 9+ needs down the line where things get more interesting?
