Hey everyone! I've been using the Bitnami Redis Helm chart for quite a while, but since Broadcom stopped supporting the free Bitnami images back in 2025, I had to shift to the legacy images temporarily. I'm now on the hunt for a long-term solution that's actively maintained and ideally free or open-source. I'm looking for recommendations for: - A robust Helm chart or a minimalist operator if that's preferable - Utilizing official Redis Docker images or similarly trusted free options - Strong capabilities in persistence, scaling, monitoring (preferably with Prometheus), and TLS - Extra credit for high availability options like Sentinel and failover, although I don't necessarily need a fully sharded Redis Cluster unless someone has strong advice for that. What are you currently using in production? Any charts or operators you can suggest that feel reliable enough for the long haul?

We switched over to Valkey, and so far it's been pretty solid for us! It's been a good alternative to Bitnami.
I have more straightforward requirements and am satisfied with cloudpirates. They've been quick to address issues and are open to contributions, which is nice.
I recently started using the dandydeveloper Helm chart. Not sure if it’s the perfect long-term solution yet, but I'm optimistic!
I heard that one has been gaining traction. It’s used by the official ArgoCD Helm Chart, so that’s a good sign!
