As the Sidekiq maintainer, I’ve seen many customers need to shard Redis around 5000-10000 jobs/sec. Sharding is a major operational headache so this could be very useful to heavy job processors if it does prove to scale better.
I also find it interesting that the BSD license enables this 3rd party company to fork Redis and build closed source commercial software on top of it. One of the trade offs to consider when licensing a project.
