Why Valkey?

Valkey is a high-performance, open-source datastore that stores key-value data in memory. It is designed for caching, message queues, and primary database use. Fully compatible with Redis®, Valkey serves as a drop-in replacement, offering both similar and enhanced functionality for fast and efficient data storage.

A Redis®-compatible database

Migrate for free

Easy to setup

Launch a Valkey cluster with just a few clicks and then access it via our simplified UI or API. With our one-click deployment, you can deploy a Valkey environment in just minutes.

Fast, reliable performance

Run your clusters on our various types of Droplets (cloud VMs), including GPU Droplets with shared vCPUs or choose 100% dedicated vCPUs for mission-critical workloads.

Automated failover

In the event of a failure, we will automatically switch data handling to a standby node to minimize downtime. We'll work to keep your mission-critical apps up and running.

End-to-end security

Databases run in your account's private network, and only whitelisted requests via the public internet can reach your database. Data is also encrypted in transit and at rest.

Highly scalable

Scale up at any time to support your business growth. Resize your Valkey clusters to add more CPUs, RAM, and storage. Add additional nodes to your cluster to increase performance, handle fluctuating workloads, and to implement cluster replication.
