There is very little in Weblate what is redis specific. Caching and Celery can use any supported backends. There is distributed locking based on Redis. This has fallback to file system based locking, so it will work fine unless you need multiple nodes of Weblate. There will be probably some additional bits relying on Redis, but these should be easy to replace when needed. Anyway I believe there will be an open source alternative to Redis as well. |

https://translate.codeberg.org/ is now running on redict 7.3.0 instead of redis as of 15 minutes ago. Nothing broke yet :-). |
