Historically, Microsoft had a Windows port of redis, which was released as Redis-64, which offers a full distribution of redis for Windows.
The Microsoft port is now deprecated, but some alternatives have sprung up to fill that void:
- Memurai is the alternative officially recommended on the Redis-64 deprecation page; it is a commercial offering with free developer tier, maintained by Janea Systems
- redis-windows is another unofficial port, which also exists
This release includes the redis-server.exe
(memurai.exe
on Memurai) application that runs a Redis instance as a service on your windows machine, as well as redis-cli.exe
(memurai-cli.exe
on Memurai) which you can use to interact with any Redis instance.
The RGL repository has historically been listed as an alternative Windows port for Redis, but this repository has not been maintained for some time and implements an older version of Redis than the Microsoft port.
