There was a problem hiding this comment.
We are running our Saas registries with valkey. It was a drop in replacement

Issue: goharbor/harbor#22935
This pull request introduces a proposal to replace Harbor's internal Redis runtime with Valkey in a carefully phased approach. The initial phase focuses on a minimal, low-risk swap of the runtime package and image name, ensuring full backward compatibility for users and existing configurations. More extensive terminology and SDK changes are explicitly deferred to a future phase.
Key highlights of the proposal:
Phase 1: Minimal Valkey Adoption

All other build directories, service names, configuration keys, environment variables, and on-disk layouts remain unchanged for maximum compatibility.harbor-helm) to reference the newvalkey-photonimage, while keeping all service names, configuration paths, and environment variables the same.Phase 2: Future Work (Not in This Release)
