Redis Radar release notes 2026.9.2

Initial release.

Redis Radar

Redis Radar's first generally available release. Radar gives you one fleet-wide view of every Redis cluster you run.

This is a Short-Term Support (STS) release. See Self-managed releases for more details.

Highlights

Fleet visibility

  • Connect and monitor Redis Software, Redis Cloud, Redis Open Source, Amazon ElastiCache, and Google Memorystore clusters from a single view. ElastiCache and Memorystore connections are off by default; an administrator turns them on. See Connect clusters.
  • Five dedicated views: Overview, Clusters, Databases, Usage, and Alerts. See Monitor clusters and databases.
  • A cross-cluster Databases list, so you can find a database without knowing which cluster it lives on, including Active-Active replication health.
  • Usage tracking for Redis Software: memory, ops/sec, and shard consumption against licensed limits.
  • Alerts aggregated from every connected Redis Software cluster and node, ordered by severity, with rules that stay owned by the cluster.

Licenses and certificates

  • Fleet-wide license tracking: expiration date, days remaining, and shard usage broken out by total, RAM, and Flex shards, with CSV export.
  • Fleet-wide certificate tracking by type, with expiration dates and a shared Valid/Expiring/Expired status model. See Licenses and certificates.

Access and security

  • Local accounts with two roles, administrator and viewer, plus account lockout and unlock.
  • LDAP integration with group-to-role mapping.
  • SAML SSO, with enforced SSO and email-domain restriction options.
  • FIPS 140-3 validated cryptography available as a separate build.
  • A credential encryption key you control, wrapping every stored connection credential. See Manage access.

Install and deployment

  • Two install methods — RPM (RHEL 9) and Helm (Kubernetes and OpenShift) — from the same release artifacts.
  • Air-gapped installation supported for both methods. See Install Radar.

The Radar images are built for linux/amd64 only.
