Valkey 7.2.5 GA is out!

2024-04-16 · Kyle Davis

Exciting times!

I'm pleased to announce that you can start using the first generally available, stable Valkey release today. Check out the release page for 7.2.5.

This release maintains the same protocol, API, return values, and data file formats with the last open source release of Redis (7.2.4).

You can build it from source or pull it from Valkey’s official Docker Hub. Valkey’s release candidates are available in Fedora and EPEL and the new release will be available once the community updates the packages.
