炸了！Redis之父 5·1 宣布Redis再度开源，网友：等这一天太久了

Core Viewpoint - Redis has returned to open source under the AGPL license after a period of using dual licensing, which was not recognized by the Open Source Initiative (OSI) [1][3][6]. Group 1: Licensing Changes - Redis was initially released under the BSD-3-Clause license, which allowed commercial use without fees [2]. - In March 2024, Redis changed its licensing to a dual model (RSALv2 and SSPLv1), which led to the loss of its open-source status [3][4]. - The change was motivated by the desire to prevent cloud providers from using Redis without contributing back [4][5]. Group 2: Return to Open Source - Antirez, the creator of Redis, rejoined the project and advocated for a return to an open-source license, specifically AGPL, which gained internal support [6][7]. - The first version under the new AGPL license, Redis 8, was officially released on May 1, 2024, featuring new functionalities and performance improvements [7]. Group 3: Community Reactions - The community has mixed feelings about Redis's return to open source, with some expressing distrust while others support the decision [11][12][14]. - Comments from users highlight the importance of Redis in their development processes and the excitement surrounding new features [16][17].
