2.6 on Windows?

[Felix E. Klee]

Is there a patched version of Redis 2.6 that runs or compiles on
Windows? (native, not Cygwin)

[AcidZombie24]

I second this question. But i'd wait until it isn't an RC

Running it in a LINUX VM now.

For Redis on Windows the next release is a 64bit version for 2.4.11. We will move to 2.6 when it is RC or officially released.

Redis 2.6 is in release candidate 8, and all of the known bugs in the
milestone have been closed (including a couple substantial changes).
You may want to start the move to 2.6.

I'm bumping this. 2.6 would be nice

[Josiah Carlson]

There is another thread where the MS people said that 2.6 was in-progress.

I've forgotten - aren't there two "Redis for Windows" efforts? Did
they "officially" get combined?

How the Hell can the lion sleep with all those people singing "A weem
oh way!" at the top of their lungs?

I don't think that Dusan is continuing maintenance of his, and he's
linked off to Microsoft's "official" port.

That's what I thought. But, of course, forks happen. ;-)

Josiah - that is true.

I use Redis in alien environment: as local storage for pre-calculated
data, which is then showed in "nice grids and flowcharts". Single
user, 32bit gui app, on Windows. Probably a bit opposite of what
Salvatore had in mind starting the project. :-)

Interesting thing is that I use Lua (LuaJIT dll actually) to calculate
data before storing it into Redis.

Claduio and MS OpenTech team are to make Redis a true server for
Windows platform. Their goal is in line with Redis core project: huge
number of concurent connections via iocp, app level fork, etc...
Perhaps I would like it to be more open while developing, or faster in
following core versions, but they have their own pace. I strongly
believe that better Windows Redis will be here soon.

Speaking of Windows, I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade my
laptop from Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit to Windows 8 Pro. If I'm
reading the web correctly, Windows 8 Pro includes something called
'Client Hyper-V', which may be capable of running a minimal Redis
appliance built on any recent Linux "JEOS" base. I'm going to be
testing out my Computational Journalism Publishers Workbench with
Windows 8 Pro Client Hyper-V in the near future and it has Redis 2.6
installed from source. I'm planning to post about this on the Github
site as soon as I start getting some results / gotchas coming forth.

Aside from some rather annoying issues with USB mice and bridging a
Hyper-V guest to a wireless network adapter that I still need to
troubleshoot/research, I have Fedora 18 Beta and openSUSE 12.2 guests
functioning in a Hyper-V virtual machine, and I'm sure Linux Mint /
Ubuntu and RHEL/CentOS will work as well.

However, I also have VMware Workstation 9 and VirtualBox 4.2.4 on the
same machine. Both are stable, mature and much better at virtualizing
a *desktop* than Hyper-V is at present. So at this point I'm guessing
my Hyper-V exercises will be limited to setting up a Redis-only guest
tied to an internal network, most likely with openSUSE 32-bit Linux as
the OS. The upside of that is that on my 8 GB machine, Hyper-V offers
me almost 6 GB for guest RAM, while both VMware and VirtualBox
recommend you use only half of your RAM for guests.
