I am building a Serverless version of Redis - written in Rust

1. RedisLess

   1 4 147 8.4 Rust

   Discontinued RedisLess is a fast, lightweight, embedded and scalable in-memory Key/Value store library compatible with the Redis API.

   

   Data is not persisted yet - everything lives in memory and synced to different instances via Raft (not implemented yet). So it will be a volatile K/V store at the moment. In the future, it will be possible to plug another [storage](https://github.com/Qovery/RedisLess/tree/main/redisless/storage/src) to support persistence.

2. InfluxDB

   www.influxdata.com featured

   InfluxDB – Built for High-Performance Time Series Workloads. InfluxDB 3 OSS is now GA. Transform, enrich, and act on time series data directly in the database. Automate critical tasks and eliminate the need to move data externally. Download now.

   

3. engine

   2 89 2,355 7.5 Rust

   The Orchestration Engine To Deliver Self-Service Infrastructure ⚡️ (by Qovery)

   

   The project is super early, but in [my company](https://www.qovery.com) we already plan to use RedisLess for our backend API written in Kotlin. I am interested in getting your feedback, and if you like the project, give it a star :)

4. Redis

   3 387 69,228 9.8 C

   For developers, who are building real-time data-driven applications, Redis is the preferred, fastest, and most feature-rich cache, data structure server, and document and vector query engine.

   

   Last weekend, after digging for one month into Redis implementation details. I decided to build something meaningful to me - and for every backend developer - a serverless version of Redis.

5. node-cache

   4 4 2,327 2.7 CoffeeScript

   a node internal (in-memory) caching module

   

   If you're looking for a caching library, there are several of them in every language I've ever used. For example, in Node node-cache is very popular (https://github.com/node-cache/node-cache). Every language I've ever worked in has a few of these. They tend to have a pretty similar basic feature set, and they all have at least the same functions that you defined in your project.

6. yugabyte-db

   5 98 9,486 10.0 C

   YugabyteDB - the cloud native distributed SQL database for mission-critical applications.

   

   For me, if you look back to when Redis has been designed - 11 years ago, it was before the Cloud was a thing. Since then, you have Cloud alternatives that are mostly proprietary. The idea of RedisLess is not competing against a product that is existing for 11 years but showing a new path of how we can build a system on top of an existing one. You can see RedisLess as experimentation. How to build Cloud-native databases by taking advantage of existing solutions? TiDB, Yugabyte, CockroachDB are great examples of being MySQL wire protocol compatible and providing a Cloud way of managing data.

7. cockroach

   6 113 30,865 10.0 Go

   CockroachDB — the cloud native, distributed SQL database designed for high availability, effortless scale, and control over data placement.
