Tair (Redis® OSS-Compatible):Release notes for minor versions of Redis Open-Source Edition

Last Updated:Mar 04, 2026

Alibaba Cloud periodically releases new minor versions of Tair (Redis OSS-compatible) to add features, fix known issues, and improve user experience. This topic describes the release notes for minor versions of Redis Open-Source Edition. We recommend that you update the minor version of your instances during off-peak hours.

Redis Open-Source Edition 7.0, 6.0, 5.0, and 4.0 are fully compatible with the corresponding major versions of open source Redis and maintain backward compatibility with earlier versions.

Important

This topic covers only the release notes for minor versions of Redis Open-Source Edition instances. For the release notes for minor versions of Tair (Enterprise Edition) instances, such as DRAM-based, persistent memory-optimized, and ESSD/SSD-based instances, see Tair minor version release notes.

View or update the minor version of an instance

You can view the current minor version of an instance in the console. For more information about the update operations and usage notes, see Upgrade minor and proxy versions.

Important
  • The system automatically detects the minor version of an instance. If the instance is running the latest minor version, the Minor Version Upgrade button is not displayed or is dimmed.

  • Minor version updates may vary by region. The minor version displayed for an instance in the console is the one that is in effect.

Update levels

  • LOW: regular updates. LOW-level updates include routine feature updates, such as adding a feature.

  • MEDIUM: recommended updates. MEDIUM-level updates include optimizations for features and modules. LOW-level updates are also included in MEDIUM-level updates.

  • HIGH: major updates. HIGH-level updates include major updates to ensure stability or security, such as fixing a vulnerability or defect. LOW-level and MEDIUM-level updates are also included in HIGH-level updates.

Note

The following tables list only the release notes after January 1, 2025. For the release notes of minor versions prior to this date, see the release notes for historical versions.
