# KeyDB overview [KeyDB ↗](https://docs.keydb.dev/) is a fully open source database, a faster drop-in alternative to Redis. It offers enhanced performance, multithreading capabilities, and maintains full compatibility with Redis clients and APIs. :::important While KeyDB is available in Zerops, please note that KeyDB development has not been very active recently. For new Redis-compatible deployments, we recommend considering [Valkey](/valkey/overview) as the preferred alternative due to its active development and ongoing support. ::: ## Feature Highlights ### Connect to KeyDB service ## Popular Guides *Need help?
