Redis is a data structure server rather than a simple key/value store. It's very useful in lots of scenarios, even if the persistence means it doesn't have ACID semantics.

It would be great to remove limitations like RAM-only capacity in exchange for a slight performance hit, and while also gaining better core utilization. We used ScyllaDB (a very fast cassandra clone) in the past for the cpu/disk scalability but always felt Redis offered better APIs. Now it's a real option.
