Redis alternatives => Redis change license

[MaximeWewer]

Hi,

With Redis license change redis/redis#13157 it could be necessary to inspect impact of this change and bench alternatives. Ex: https://github.com/dragonflydb/dragonfly or https://github.com/Snapchat/KeyDB.

As we're not re-selling redis as a service, this license change does not affect us. Anything that is 100% redis compatible should work with authentik just fine, however we do officially only support Redis.

What would it take to officially support Valkey in addition to Redis? We might be able to offer testing and engineering help to help setup compatibility testing.

There is this: https://github.com/django-commons/django-valkey

It's a fork of django-redis.

Redis is being removed in our 2025.10 release and therefore an alternative isn't required.
