As of October 8th 2024, we’ve added support for Valkey 7.2 on Amazon ElastiCache and Amazon MemoryDB, our fully managed in-memory services. In this post, we discuss the AWS contributions to Valkey, AWS commitment to making Valkey more accessible for ElastiCache and MemoryDB customers, and how customers can start using it in their applications.

Amazon ElastiCache, a fully managed, Redis OSS- and Memcached-compatible caching service, now supports size flexibility for all its reserved node offerings, enabling your reserved node discount to apply across differently sized node types beyond the size specified in your reservation. With flexible reserved nodes, you no longer need to commit to a specific node size when purchasing a reservation, reducing the overhead of capacity planning and enabling you to right-size your clusters as your workloads and capacity needs change. In this post, we explain how you can use this new size flexibility feature to leverage discounted pricing on your ElastiCache clusters.

We’re excited to announce Valkey General Language Independent Driver for the Enterprise (GLIDE), an open source permissively licensed (Apache 2.0 license) Valkey client library. In this post, we discuss the benefits of Valkey GLIDE.
