About valkey

This is an OCI image that bundles Valkey together with the metrics exporter. Valkey is an open source, flexible distributed key-value datastore that is optimized for caching and other realtime workloads.

Quickstart:

To deploy a simple Valkey container:

docker run --name valkey ubuntu/valkey:7.2.7-24.04

To connect to Valkey and check status:

docker exec valkey valkey-cli ping

To adjust the configuration of your Valkey container (e.g. disabling protected mode), create a config file and mount it into the container to this directory:

/var/lib/valkey

Tags and Architectures

!LTS Up to 5 years of free security maintenance on LTS channels.

!ESM Up to 10 years of customer security maintenance from Canonical's restricted repositories.

Channel Tags shows the most stable channel for that track ordered stable, candidate, beta, edge. More risky channels are always implicitly available. So if beta is listed, you can also pull edge. If candidate is listed, you can pull beta and edge. When stable is listed, all four are available. Images are guaranteed to progress through the sequence edge, beta, candidate before stable.
