Version Mgmt

Redis Open Source provides comprehensive version management that prioritizes customer control over major changes.

Redis version structure

Redis uses a MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH versioning scheme:

• Major versions: Significant changes that may include breaking changes (e.g., Redis 7 → Redis 8)
• Minor versions: New features and improvements within a major version (e.g., 8.2 → 8.4 → 8.6)
• Patch versions: Bug fixes and security updates (e.g., 8.2.1 → 8.2.2)

Supported versions

{{< note >}} We strongly recommend using the latest available version to benefit from the newest features, performance improvements, and security updates. {{< /note >}}
