Optimize AI projects with reliable data processing while addressing scaling challenges
There are a few areas where Redis could improve. The pub-sub capabilities could be optimized to handle network sessions better, as there are challenges with maintaining sessions between clients and systems. Data persistence and recovery face issues with compatibility across major versions, making upgrades possible but downgrades not active. There's a need for better migration tools to support data movements in a hybrid environment. Concerns exist about licensing and community engagement due to changes in Redis and its forks.
