Railway suggest to use bitnami/redis docker image for Redis.

I want to create this open-thread ask other folks how did they managed to migrate from bitnami/redis to Valkey

  • Is it simple replacement of the docker image (while keeping the data volume intact)

  • Are there any breaking changes?

  • What does Railway team suggest in this?

Valkey migration guide from Redis says that it is safe to migrate to Valkey if the Redis version is <= 7.2.4

tbh I think the suggestion would be to make a backup and follow the valkey migration guide lol

there’s nothing “extra” you can do

for the volume related operations (copying snapshots) in the physical migration, you will use the filebrowser template

Copy snapshot from redis -> put it on valkey

maybe you can try a docker image replacement? (clearly first do a backup and do it on a staging environment or smth)

valkey is a fork of redis so in theory it should just work
