I have been using this for awhile now and so far no problems. I still need to
add authentication to it but for now it suits my needs. Any chance someone
could vet this and see that is sane and the possibly consider it for inclusion?

Thx

I was vaguely planning on looking at modern networked data stores as a
mini-theme for some work towards 4.79, and was pleased to see redis already
done.

It's a judgement call, could go either way; if another maintainer wants to own
review and commit, they can go ahead before I cut the first RC, but otherwise
I'm happy to look more closely for 4.79.

That sounds great. Did this planning involve looking at revamping the hints
db's to make use of a modern networked data store? Or is this something that
would be looked at for v5?

No problem - thanks Phil. In the meantime I'll look at adding authentication to
the lookup.

I mostly want to make sure that we can speak text-based memcache protocol,
because of the number of systems using it now. Redis was the main other thing
I wanted.

DB-wise, I guess we need to support DB5.x, even though the compatibility is
getting iffy. I want to see if the hints DBs can be easily adjusted to use
non-DB. If it can use any of the existing lookup APIs, that would be good, but
I know that Philip Hazel was very careful about the processing overhead on the
current DB paths, so I might need to figure out a load-test framework first
(and I don't know when I'll have time). If we can do that, then I will
probably add another hints DB, of the TLS session cache, so that clients
talking to a pool of servers are likely to be able to use session resumption.

amendment: next release will be 4.80, skipping two to the next round .10; all
points below stand, just read 4.79 as 4.81.
