## Feature compatibility

The following tables show Redis Software feature support for each Redis Open Source feature.

Version numbers indicate when the feature was first supported. If you're using an earlier version than what's shown in the table, the feature is not supported.

## Feature descriptions

The following table briefly describes each feature shown in the earlier tables.

Feature name/capability

Description

Active-Active (CRDB)

Compatible with Active-Active (CRDB) databases

Backup/Restore

Supports import and export features

Clustering

Compatible with sharded databases and shard migration

Custom hashing policy

Compatible with databases using custom hashing policies

Eviction expiration

Allows data to be evicted when the database reaches memory limits

Failover/migration

Compatible with primary/replica failover and the migration of shards between nodes within the cluster

Internode encryption

Compatible with encryption on the data plane

Persistence (AOF)

Compatible with databases using AoF persistence

Persistence (snapshot)

Compatible with databases using snapshot persistence

Auto Tiering

Compatible with Auto Tiering

Redis Flex

## Footnotes

* * *

1.  With the exception of JSON, you currently cannot combine Active-Active with Redis Open Source features in Redis Cloud. [↩︎](#fnref:1) [↩︎](#fnref1:1)
    
2.  You cannot use search and query with the [OSS Cluster API](/docs/latest/operate/rs/databases/configure/oss-cluster-api/). This limitation was fixed in Redis Software version 8.0. [↩︎](#fnref:2)
    
3.  You currently cannot combine Auto Tiering with Redis Open Source features in Redis Cloud. [↩︎](#fnref:3) [↩︎](#fnref1:3)
    
4.  RediSearch version 1.6 supported Replica Of only between databases with the same number of shards. This limitation was fixed in v2.0. [↩︎](#fnref:4)
    
5.  Although time series are compatible with Auto Tiering, the entire series either lives in RAM or on flash. [↩︎](#fnref:5)
