Introduction to the Redis 7.0 release
=====================================
Redis 7.0 includes several new user-facing features, significant performance
optimizations, and many other improvements. It also includes changes that
potentially break backwards compatibility with older versions. We urge users to
review the release notes carefully before upgrading.
In particular, users should be aware of the following changes:
1. Redis 7 stores AOF as multiple files in a folder; see Multi-Part AOF below.
2. Redis 7 uses a new version 10 format for RDB files, which is incompatible
with older versions.
3. Redis 7 converts ziplist encoded keys to listpacks on the fly when loading
an older RDB format. Conversion applies to loading a file from disk or
replicating from a Redis master and will slightly increase loading time.
