Show HN: Redis Rubix Bridge a HTTP API Redis Gateway

rubixvi — Wed, 15 Jul 2026 21:46:04 +0000

Rubix Redis Bridge is an open source Redis HTTP API gateway compatible with Upstash Redis, Upstash Rate Limiter and Upstash Realtime.

Before the usual comments, yes, native TCP is faster and exposing Redis directly to the internet is dangerous.

The problem is that Redis has traditionally been difficult to use from serverless platforms and environments with dynamic IP addresses, strict firewall policies or networking restrictions where opening a Redis port is either impractical or impossible.

Cloudflare recently introduced Workers support to address this problem. While that approach works, it still relies on creating Redis connections from a serverless runtime, which can become inefficient when every request establishes a new connection.

Rubix Redis Bridge takes a different approach. Similar to Upstash, it exposes Redis through an HTTP API gateway instead of exposing Redis itself. Unlike projects such as Webdis or other Redis-over-HTTP gateways, Rubix Redis Bridge supports Pub/Sub, is written in Rust, and includes strict security boundaries designed to minimise the attack surface of an internet-facing Redis service.

The bridge does not create a new Redis connection for every HTTP request or rely on inefficient command loops. Commands are pipelined where appropriate and grouped into MULTI/EXEC transactions where possible to reduce round trips and improve efficiency.

Current benchmarks show approximately a 25 to 33 percent operational overhead compared to direct Redis TCP connections while still achieving around 7,000 to 10,000 operations per second, depending on workload.

Why Rubix Redis Bridge instead of Upstash?

Rubix Redis Bridge delivers a comparable HTTP API while remaining completely self-hosted.

Key advantages include:

No vendor lock-in. No enterprise licensing restrictions. Freedom to choose Redis, Valkey, DragonflyDB, KeyDB or other compatible backends. Infrastructure remains under your control. Costs are based on your own hosting rather than managed service pricing. Compatible with Upstash Redis SDKs, Rate Limiter and Realtime. Your data remains yours and is stored wherever you choose to host it.

Check it out, be aggressive and judgemental, as this will allow us to fix, optimise and continue to develop this project.

Show HN: I created Redis alternative in Go that even runs natively on Windows

inmate4587 — Sun, 12 Jul 2026 20:13:48 +0000

Hi I am a backend developer for almost a decade and mostly work on Windows servers; when it comes to deploy the internal tools and web application. For redis we have to spin a another VM in hypervisor just to run Redis. For local development I have to install heavy ass docker desktop or run a parallel operating system(WSL) just to run teeny tiny redis server. Some alternatives exist already such as godis but they only cover partial redis surface

I have been trying to create redis fork that runs nativerly on Windows but for a single person it's a herculean task. So i have been taking help of various coding agent and ai models to come up with something that can help run be run natively on Windows so I can run redis-py and arq and huey like libraries with ease.

So here it is: FrostDB.

It's a single binary that currently implements from basic GET/SET commands to Pub/Sub, Streams, Hashes, Lists, Sets, and GEO commands with RDB import/export, LRU eviction etc. It's compatible with many Redis client libraries across multiple programming languages, including those that use Redis as a message queue. The implementation of the supported commands is tested against the original Redis test suite from the Redis GitHub repository. I'm still testing a few things and am now shifting my focus toward performance.

This isn't meant to replace Redis, and I'm not telling anyone to switch to it. But if you're looking for a Redis-compatible server that runs natively on Windows, something now exists, at least for development and testing.
