Server - Redis — ContextQMD

The following tables show which Redis Open Source [server management commands]({{< relref "/commands" >}}?group=server) are compatible with standard and Active-Active databases in Redis Software and Redis Cloud.

Access control commands

Several access control list (ACL) commands are not available in Redis Software. Instead, you can manage access controls from the [Redis Software Cluster Manager UI]({{< relref "/operate/rs/security/access-control" >}}) and the [Redis Cloud console]({{< relref "/operate/rc/security/access-control/data-access-control/role-based-access-control.md" >}}).

Configuration commands

Module commands

For Redis Software, you can [manage Redis modules]({{< relref "/operate/oss_and_stack/stack-with-enterprise/install/" >}}) from the Cluster Manager UI or with [REST API requests]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/modules" >}}).

Redis Cloud manages modules for you and lets you [enable modules]({{< relref "/operate/rc/databases/create-database#modules" >}}) when you create a database.

Monitoring commands

Although Redis Software does not support certain monitoring commands, you can use the Cluster Manager UI to view Redis Software [metrics]({{< relref "/operate/rs/monitoring" >}}) and [logs]({{< relref "/operate/rs/clusters/logging" >}}) or the Redis Cloud console to view Redis Cloud [metrics]({{< relref "/operate/rc/databases/monitor-performance" >}}) and [logs]({{< relref "/operate/rc/logs-reports/system-logs" >}}).

| Command | Redis Software | Redis Cloud | Notes | |:--------|:----------------------|:-----------------|:------| | [DBSIZE]({{< relref "/commands/dbsize" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | | | [INFO]({{< relref "/commands/info" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | In Redis Software, INFO returns a different set of fields than Redis Open Source. Not supported for [scripts]({{<relref "/develop/programmability">}}). | | [LATENCY DOCTOR]({{< relref "/commands/latency-doctor" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [LATENCY GRAPH]({{< relref "/commands/latency-graph" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [LATENCY HELP]({{< relref "/commands/latency-help" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [LATENCY HISTOGRAM]({{< relref "/commands/latency-histogram" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | | | [LATENCY HISTORY]({{< relref "/commands/latency-history" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [LATENCY LATEST]({{< relref "/commands/latency-latest" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [LATENCY RESET]({{< relref "/commands/latency-reset" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [MEMORY DOCTOR]({{< relref "/commands/memory-doctor" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [MEMORY HELP]({{< relref "/commands/memory-help" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | Not supported for [scripts]({{<relref "/develop/programmability">}}) in Redis versions earlier than 7. | | [MEMORY MALLOC-STATS]({{< relref "/commands/memory-malloc-stats" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [MEMORY PURGE]({{< relref "/commands/memory-purge" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [MEMORY STATS]({{< relref "/commands/memory-stats" >}}) | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | ❌ Standard ❌ Active-Active | | | [MEMORY USAGE]({{< relref "/commands/memory-usage" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | Not supported for [scripts]({{<relref "/develop/programmability">}}) in Redis versions earlier than 7. | | [MONITOR]({{< relref "/commands/monitor" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | | | [SLOWLOG GET]({{< relref "/commands/slowlog-get" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | Not supported for [scripts]({{<relref "/develop/programmability">}}). | | [SLOWLOG LEN]({{< relref "/commands/slowlog-len" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | Not supported for [scripts]({{<relref "/develop/programmability">}}). | | [SLOWLOG RESET]({{< relref "/commands/slowlog-reset" >}}) | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | ✅ Standard ✅ Active-Active | Not supported for [scripts]({{<relref "/develop/programmability">}}). |

Persistence commands

Data persistence and backup commands are not available in Redis Software. Instead, you can [manage data persistence]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/configure/database-persistence" >}}) and [backups]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/import-export/schedule-backups" >}}) from the Redis Software Cluster Manager UI and the [Redis Cloud console]({{< relref "/operate/rc/databases/view-edit-database#durability-section" >}}).

Replication commands

Redis Software automatically manages [replication]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/durability-ha/replication" >}}).
