A sovereign alternative to Redis Cloud, powered by hybrid and multi-cloud deployments with LayerOps
If you’ve ever worked on a high-traffic application, chances are you’ve used Redis — and maybe even Redis Cloud. It’s fast, reliable, and widely adopted. But like many cloud-native services, Redis Cloud is hosted and managed by US-based providers. And while the technical benefits are clear, there’s a growing need across Europe to regain control over data residency, cloud vendor dependency, and long-term sovereignty.
That’s where LayerOps steps in.
A European-native alternative to Redis Cloud
LayerOps now enables the deployment of KeyDB, a high-performance, open source, Redis-compatible database engine — across multiple European cloud providers, in hybrid and sovereign infrastructures. Think of it as Redis-as-a-Service, but deployed on your terms, on infrastructure you choose.
You can now run your Redis-like services:
- On your own private servers
- Across trusted EU cloud providers like OVHcloud, Scaleway, Outscale, Exoscale or Infomaniak
- Or in hybrid scenarios mixing public cloud with your dedicated machines
This flexibility isn't just about performance or architecture. It’s about freedom.
Why this matters more than ever
Recent years have shown us just how vulnerable our digital infrastructures can be. From geopolitical instability to cloud pricing volatility, relying entirely on hyperscalers for critical services creates significant risks. And while Redis Cloud offers convenience, it also comes with:
- Vendor lock-in
- Opaque data location
- Lack of jurisdictional guarantees
With LayerOps, you can deploy your KeyDB services in just a few clicks, with built-in failover, multi-provider support, and load balancing capabilities — without needing to touch Kubernetes or Terraform.
And because it’s container-native, everything stays portable.
A redis-like service, without compromise
The LayerOps marketplace includes preconfigured services like KeyDB, ready to deploy with your preferred configuration. Want to scale horizontally across providers? Automate backup snapshots? Route traffic with TCP-level load balancing? It’s already built in.
And of course, you remain fully in control:
- You bring your own cloud accounts (no shared infra)
- You choose your regions, providers, and backup policies
- You monitor cost and usage from one unified console
A step toward digital sovereignty
Europe doesn’t just need data centers. It needs platforms. Tools that don’t just mimic US models, but rethink the cloud experience from a sovereignty-first perspective. LayerOps is proud to contribute to this momentum, offering a tangible, operational alternative — for Redis and beyond.
If you're currently using Redis Cloud, maybe it’s time to try a European-native approach. One where performance doesn’t come at the cost of control.
