Off to #kubecon / #kubeconeu in #Amsterdam. Mostly syncing with folks on #Valkey.

Anyone else?

I'm on my way to #KubeCon to talk about our journey from #Redis on EC2 to #Valkey on #Kubernetes, this Thursday at 11:45 CET!

Happy to also meet up with folks to chat about the upcoming Valkey Operator, which is in development!

How to Install Valkey on Ubuntu 24.04

This article outlines the installation and configuration of Valkey, a key-value store derived from Redis, on Ubuntu 24.04. It highlights the simplicity of installation using default repositories, customization options through the configuration file, and various commands for operation. Valkey supports numerous data types and offers flexibility as a daemon or in a cluster.

I've just released PubSub Chat, a "toy" chat system that only relies on Redis-compatible / PubSub-enabled database (and no other server app)

https://codeberg.org/brunobord/pubsub-chat

I've tried to document it the best I could ; don't forget that it's quite unsafe and is NOT meant to replace IRC, Matrix, XMPP, etc.
But that was fun reviving it.

So, decided to get them rookie `/queue` numbers up so did a quick bit of caching. For a 12-job queue, I went from 240 RPS (Python/Flask) to 680 (Golang/Gin) then to 3400 RPS with some proper caching. The `/workers` endpoint would benefit as well, but I think its performant enough though I may end up adding a bit of caching later.

FastAPI на AMD FX-8320: оптимизация P99 latency в условиях ограниченных ресурсов (HDD, DDR3)

В 2026 году асинхронный Python уже никого не удивляет. Мы привыкли к автоскейлингу в облаках, но что делать, если ваш бюджет на инфраструктуру равен нулю, а в распоряжении есть только «печка» из 2012 года? Рассказываю про личный опыт выжимания максимума из FastAPI на AMD FX-8320: от тюнинга ядра Linux и PostgreSQL до миграции на Ed25519 и использования Rust-сервера Granian.

#Valkey emerged as a community-driven fork of Redis after the 2024 license change - created in just 8 days by maintainers from Amazon, Google, Alibaba, Ericsson, and more!

In this #InfoQ #podcast, Madelyn Olson dives deep on Valkey:
• How it started as an #opensource fork of Redis
• Engineering wins: optimized memory & boosted throughput

I've been using Valkey (and Redis before it) for years when building scripts or small apps to store a bit of data.

Even though I'm not storing a lot of data, it has always irked me that it needs to be in memory all the time.

Last night I found kvrocks, an Apache project, which provides a redis interface, but stores data on disk in rocksdb. Even better, it has "namespaces", so I can separate each app easily by credential.
