RedisSaaS
Paying a premium to stand still
A SaaS company runs Redis OSS 6 on ElastiCache. From February 2027, AWS adds an Extended Support premium of 80% on each node, rising to 160% in year three.
Challenge
The product embeds Redis in a hosted offering, so a newer Redis licence does not fit, and the team wants to stay on the BSD-licensed line until a Valkey migration is tested.
Environment
Redis OSS 6 on ElastiCache, moving to self-managed Redis 7.2 and later Valkey.
Approach
OSSeva models the cost against Extended Support, supports the move to self-managed Redis 7.2 with patched builds, and runs the later Valkey migration.
What this delivers
The same BSD-licensed Redis without the surcharge, and a tested path to Valkey.
