Upcoming Changes

Minimum required Redis version

As of version 8.20, Redis is mandatory for some OX App Suite 8.x components. It is recommended to use a high availability Redis sentinel cluster.

With the upcoming version, v8.29 (end of September 2024), OX App Suite will depend on Redis v7.4. It will also need another Redis instance to be used as a cache for the OX App Suite Middleware. It is recommended that this Redis instance runs in standalone mode and has configured a higher amount of maximum memory.

Open-Xchange encourages administrators to move to Redis v7.4 before updating to OX App Suite 8.29. Note that OX App Suite versions prior to 8.29 already supported Redis v7.4. More information can be found in the Operation Guide. Please also note that a future version of OX App Suite will remove support for directly configuring Redis via spotahome/redis-operator.
