why does there need to be an alternative? is there something wrong or inefficient with it? is it just too old?
My guess is it's the license change. From Wikipedia:
Valkey appears to be a Redis fork that was triggered by the license change, but since Valkey still uses the original BSD license, I'm not sure I'd favour it over Redis since the latter switched licences specifically to prevent abuse of the BSD license by parties like Amazon.
