New in this release
Redis Enterprise for Kubernetes 7.22.0-15 is a feature release that includes enhancements, platform updates, and support for Redis Software 7.22.0-216.
Enhancements
- Call home - support HTTP proxy configuration (RED-156935)

Resolved Issues
- Adding
servicesAnnotations
in the REC spec keeps updating the services in a loop (RED-154777, RED-158816) - New call home job is not created if the old one is stuck due to pod in
imagePullBackoff
(RED-157526) - REAADB ACL roles do not get properly assigned according to
rolesPermissions
in spec (RED-158955) - CVE fixes
allowPrivilegeEscalation
is unset in the init container forreadOnlyRootFilesystem
(RED-163637)
API changes
CRD | Field | Change | Description |
---|---|---|---|
REAADB | spec.databaseServicePort |
Add | A custom port to be exposed by the database services. Can be modified/added/removed after REDB creation. If set, it replaces the default service port (namely, databasePort or defaultRedisPort ). |
REC | spec.usageMeterSpec.CallHomeClient.proxySecretName |
Add | If needed, add proxy details in secret. The name of the proxy secret in the secret, can send the following keys: proxy-url , proxy-username , proxy-password (the URL includes the proxy port). |
REDB | spec.databaseServicePort |
Add | A custom port to be exposed by the database services. Can be modified/added/removed after REDB creation. If set, it replaces the default service port (namely, databasePort or defaultRedisPort ). |

7.22.0-7
New in the release
Redis Enterprise for Kubernetes 7.22.0-7 is a feature release that includes enhancements, platform updates, and support for Redis Software 7.22.0-28.
Enhancements
- Added support for Redis Software 7.22.0.
- Enabled support for Active-Active databases (REAADB) in multi-namespace deployments.
- Defaulted new installations and upgrades to unprivileged mode, which uses a more secure security context without additional Linux capabilities.
- A new cronjob is created by the operator using the `redislabs/re-call-home-client.7.22.0-7 image.
- Updated supported Kubernetes platforms.
API changes
CRD | Field | Change | Description |
---|---|---|---|
REAADB | spec.participatingClusters[].namespace |
Added | Specifies the namespace in which the REAADB object will be deployed in the corresponding participating cluster. Make sure that the Redis Enterprise operator is configured to watch this namespace and that the required RBAC configuration is in place. For more information, see Multi-namespace deployments. If no namespace is specified, the REAADB object is deployed to the REC’s namespace in the corresponding cluster. |
REC | spec.usageMeter.callHomeClient |
Added | Configuration for the call home client. For details, see the REC API reference. |
REC | spec.securityContext.resourceLimits |
Added | Configuration that allows Redis Enterprise to adjust system resource settings. For details, see the REC API reference. |
Breaking changes
By default, the operator no longer sets additional Linux capabilities in the security context. If your deployment requires capabilities such as SYS_RESOURCE
, see Enable privileged mode.

7.8.6-1
New in the release
Redis Enterprise for Kubernetes 7.8.6-1 is a feature release that includes enhancements, bug fixes, platform updates, and support for Redis Software 7.8.6-13. This release also includes the ability to install the operator using Helm (preview).

- Updated supported Kubernetes distributions
- DatabaseServicePortPolicy allows use of the default Redis port (6379) for database services.
- Added additional license fields to the REC status.
- Added validation to prevent unsupported changes to podDisruptionBudget.
- Added support for Helm install method.
Resolved issues
- Removed unnecessary users from the Redis Enterprise container image (RED-73626).
- Fixed Sonarcube findings in the log collector (RED-129297).
- Fixed upgrade failure due to update of the nodeSelector during the upgrade (RED-138445).
- Fixed issues with Vault plugin connections to Redis Enterprise (RED-139352 RED-144637).
- Fixed operator crash when a namespace is labeled with a specific label (RED-140344).
- Fixed failure in Services Rigger when a database uses port 10250 (RED-142673).
- Reduced CPU priority of the health_check.py script to ensure availability (RED-144360).
- Fixed broken use case for customizing the Active-Active port. (RED-149374).
- Fixed API reference for REDB properties (RED-151195).
- Fixed operator CVE-2024-24786 (RED-151873).
- Fixed wrong image tag for OpenShift example YAML (RED-152022).
API changes
CRD | Field | Change | Description |
---|---|---|---|
REAADB | spec.externalReplicationPort |
ADD | Specifies the replication endpoint port number for users who use LoadBalancers to synchronize Active-Active replicas and must provide the port that the LoadBalancer listens on. |
REC | status.shardsUsage |
ADD | Total number of shards (both RAM and flash) currently in use under this license. |
REC | status.flashShards |
ADD | Number of flash shards currently in use under this license. |
REC | status.flashShardsLimit |
ADD | Number of flash shards allowed under this license. |
REC | status.ramShards |
ADD | Number of RAM shards currently in use under this license. |
REC | status.ramShardsLimit |
ADD | Number of RAM shards allowed under this license. |
REC | spec.podSecurityPolicyName |
REMOVE | Not supported anymore by supported Kubernetes versions. |
REC | spec.databaseServicePortPolicy |
ADD | Specifies how to determine service ports for REDB services. Defaults to DatabasePortForward if not set. DatabasePortForward - The service port will be the same as the database port. RedisDefaultPort - The service port will be the default Redis port (6379). |
Breaking changes
Customers who use load balancers for Active-Active replication endpoints and rely on the change introduced in RED-113626 (or the workaround described in the ticket) must set the spec.externalReplicationPort field in REAADB after upgrading. Otherwise, replication will fail (RED-149374).
