Bitnami discontinues free access for their catalogue including supported stable Redis container images and charts.
This is a reminder for all customers operating OX App Suite 8 and relying on Bitnami Redis container images and charts.
Bitnami announced "Upcoming changes to the Bitnami catalog (effective August 28th, 2025)": https://github.com/bitnami/containers/issues/83267 and also commented on the reasoning of these changes: https://community.broadcom.com/tanzu...es-coming-soon
Based on this announcement, we need to adjust our recommendations on how Redis shall be run by our subscription customers for use with OX App Suite:
For production use, we recommend running Redis on VMs, in a configuration and sizing along the lines of our current platform-generic recommendation. (https://documentation.open-xchange.c...ion/redis.html)
For labs, development systems, and other deployments with reduced requirements on sizing and availability, it might be sufficient to run Redis on Kubernetes using standalone instances based on the upstream container https://hub.docker.com/_/redis again in a configuration and sizing along the lines of our current recommendation (reduced to the standalone deployment).
We aim to provide a sample template or Helm chart for this soon as part of our Operation Guides. https://documentation.open-xchange.c...ration-guides/
