GitHub - kividbio/kividb: A fast, multi-threaded Redis® and Valkey alternative written in Rust: drop-in compatible, with full-text and vector search built in

KiviDB is a fast, multi-threaded alternative to Redis® and Valkey, written in Rust. It speaks the Redis protocol (RESP2 and RESP3), so existing Redis clients, redis-cli and libraries work unchanged, and it has full-text and vector search built in. It runs every core on a sharded in-memory key-value design, and persists to snapshots and an optional append-only file. On the same 32 cores, KiviDB serves 21 million pipelined GETs per second: about 9× Redis 8 and 2.3× Dragonfly, with under half Dragonfly's p99 latency (benchmarks). docker run -d -p 6380:6380 kividb/kividb redis-cli -p 6380 PING # PONG KiviDB listens on 6380, not Redis's 6379, so the two can run side by side; point your client at that port, or pass --port 6379. Protocol: Redis-compatible command surface (see COMMANDS.md for the supported commands) Search and vectors: Redis Stack–style FT.* commands for full-text, tag, numeric and vector (FLAT / HNSW) search Lua scripting: optional Cargo feature.
