The post is a bit misleading as the agpl is a licensing option but not the license.

It’s a good trade-off though. Grafana does the same and they’re doing just fine.

I hope redis gets to live a long life now that’s more open than ever (essentially it’s free software now) :)

After the redis troubles I hope more people start to realise that the GPL license is the way really, and that other licenses (like the BSD that Redis used to use) are really just too risky.
