Highlights
- Use Valkey on AWS to provide a cache for your applications running on AWS. Supports high availability. Easily create a Valkey Cluster on AWS.
- Valkey provides data structures such as strings, hashes, lists, sets, sorted sets with range queries, bitmaps, hyperloglogs, geospatial indexes, and streams. Valkey has built-in replication, Lua scripting, LRU eviction, transactions, and different levels of on-disk persistence.
- Valkey stores the whole dataset in primary memory, that's why it is extremely fast. Valkey supports sharding. It is very easy to distribute the dataset across multiple Valkey instances, like other key-value store.

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for a running instance, with no upfront commitment. Each pricing dimension maps to a specific Amazon EC2 instance type that runs the Valkey software on Amazon Linux 2023. The hourly rate you pay depends on which instance type you launch. Smaller instance types carry lower hourly rates, while larger compute, memory, storage, or accelerated instance types carry higher rates. This structure lets you match your hourly cost to the CPU, memory, and storage capacity your workload needs. You only pay while the instance runs, and you can change instance type by launching a different size.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
The hourly rate covers the Valkey software running on Amazon Linux 2023 on that Amazon EC2 instance type. The instance type sets the CPU, memory, and storage capacity you get. Each type carries its own rate. Underlying AWS infrastructure charges apply separately and are not part of this software rate.
The software charge meters running instance-hours. When you stop the instance, the hourly software charge stops accruing. Underlying AWS charges, such as storage for a stopped instance, may still apply separately. You pay only while the instance runs.
You change instance type by launching a different size and running Valkey there. Your hourly rate then matches the new type's rate. There is no upfront commitment tying you to one type, so you can pick a smaller or larger CPU, memory, or storage profile as needs change.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
You can find the configuration file at /etc/valkey/valkey.conf
The default port is still 6379, so, go ahead, spin a new instance, and replace your current Redis instance with this Valkey one.
You can use the service command in order to manage the valkey server using: sudo service valkey start|stop|restart|status By default the valkey server is started when the instance starts.
By default Valkey binds to all the interfaces and has no authentication at all. If you use Valkey in a very controlled environment, separated from the external internet and in general from attackers, that is fine. However, if an unhardened Valkey is exposed to the internet, it is a big security concern. If you are not 100% sure your environment is secured properly, please check Valkey installation docs: https://valkey.io/topics/installation/
To configure TLS you can follow the instructions here: https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey?tab=readme-ov-file#running-valkey-with-tls
