v8.0.0
This is the General Availability release of Redis Open Source 8.0.
Redis 8.0 deprecates previous Redis and Redis Stack versions.
Stand alone RediSearch, RedisJSON, RedisTimeSeries, and RedisBloom are no longer needed as they are now part of Redis.

-
(2) JSON - a queryable JSON document
-
(3) Time series
-
(4-8) Five probabilistic data structures: Bloom filter, Cuckoo filter, Count-min sketch, Top-k, and t-digest
-
(9) Vector set [beta] - a data structure designed for Vector Similarity Search, inspired by Sorted set
-
These nine components are included in all binary distributions
-
See instructions in the README.md file on how to build from source with all these components
-
New configuration file: redis-full.conf - loads Redis with all these components,
and contains new configuration parameters for Redis Query Engine and the new data structures -
New ACL categories:
@search
,@json
,@timeseries
,@bloom
,@cuckoo
,@cms
,@topk
,@tdigest
-
Commands are also included in the existing ACL categories (
@read
,@write
, etc.)
-
-
More than 30 performance and resource utilization improvements
-
A new I/O threading implementation which enables throughput increase on multi-core environments
(set withio-threads
configuration parameter) -
An improved replication mechanism which is more performant and robust
