Hi,

I haven't seen this but I'd like to point that Redis moved to an open
core licensing model.
https://redislabs.com/community/commons-clause/

In short:
* base engine remains under BSD license
* modules move to ASL 2.0 + commons clause which is non-free
(prohibits sales of derived products)

IMHO, projects that rely on Redis as default driver, should consider
alternatives (off course, it's up to them).

Regards,
H.
