Download Valkey 9.2

Valkey 9.2 has no stable release yet. What follows describes a release candidate. Commands, configuration, and behaviour can change before the stable release, and release candidates are not supported for production use.

Major features in 9.2:

  • Path Hash, a new radix-tree-backed data type whose PH* commands do exact lookup, longest-prefix matching, and prefix traversal over binary-safe paths.
  • Forkless RDB snapshots, so BGSAVE no longer has to fork, opt-in via forkless-infrastructure-enabled and bgsave-default-method in valkey.conf.
  • Large sorted sets are backed by a B+ tree rather than a skiplist, which OBJECT ENCODING reports as btree.
  • ACL roles: named, reusable sets of selectors managed with ACL SETROLE, assigned to users with role:<name>.
  • Server-side hot key detection via HOTKEYS GET, plus optional replication throttling that slows writers instead of letting a lagging replica drop into a full sync.
