What is the logic behind separating those from the core server? Binary size? Automatic configuration? "Wow this has a lot of features" vs "wow what are all these extra things I need to sift through to figure out what I need", no?

All the above :)

I don't understand why there is timeseries solution there, usually people who use timeseries work with many Gigas of storage, are we gonna pay for RAM to do that?

First it all depends on your latency requirements and TP, if you need your TimeSeries DB to support high ingest TP and low query latency a RAM based is almost the only way you can go.

Second, many Gigas is what you get from any small size server... And, on top of that Redis/TimeSeries supports an almost linear scale out which allows your memory to increase dynamically according to your needs. Last, Redis Enterprise (& Cloud) add Redis on Flash support extending your RAM to your local Flash storage.

It’s a shame they don’t offer first class Ruby support. I could see myself using some this stuff.

Is this something Redis are likely to offer in future does anyone know?

Around two months ago I was excited to learn about RedisJSON, only to get to know that there is no ARM-based Docker image available for installing it on a Raspberry Pi.

What is preventing you to contribute and create it?

It would be great if ElastCache supports this

Redis Stack is not Open Source, so that wouldn't be possible. AWS would have to reimplement all of the functionality, make their implementation Open Source, and keep adding new features to keep up.

It's a datastore. It has clients for many languages, including a recommended one for Ruby. What support are you missing here?

You're right, we would love to provide a much better experience in Ruby it was just a matter of priorities... BTW, all the modules already have ruby based clients developed by the community.

e.g.

* https://github.com/npezza93/redi_search

* https://github.com/vachhanihpavan/rejson-rb

* https://github.com/dzunk/redis-time-series

You can see on each modules docs the list of clients developed by the community. e.g.
