README
This project was forked from the open source Redis project right before the transition to their new source available licenses.
This README is just a fast quick start document. More details can be found under valkey.io
What is Valkey?
Valkey is a high-performance data structure server that primarily serves key/value workloads. It supports a wide range of native structures and an extensible plugin system for adding new data structures and access patterns.
Building Valkey using Makefile
Valkey can be compiled and used on Linux, macOS, OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD. We support big endian and little endian architectures, and both 32 bit and 64 bit systems.
It may compile on Solaris derived systems (for instance SmartOS) but our support for this platform is best effort and Valkey is not guaranteed to work as well as in Linux, macOS, and *BSD.
It is as simple as:
% make
To build with TLS support, you'll need OpenSSL development libraries (e.g. libssl-dev on Debian/Ubuntu).
To build TLS support as Valkey built-in:
