Interesting, in a recent thread (I think it was about Redis going back open source) an AWS employer was bragging about substantial concurrency optimizations they implemented in Valkey. At the time I thought it could have been a great differentiator to keep proprietary but perhaps they decide to sacrifice it to help make sure Valkey takes over the Redis midshare.

That's a special case for sure, given the new fight for supremacy between the two forks, that said you can see in all those threads antirez bickering with the AWS people over exactly who introduced what.
