In their own words
Garnet
Garnet is a free remote cache-store from Microsoft Research for self-hosted use on Linux, macOS, and Windows. It uses RESP and works with many unmodified Redis clients, including StackExchange.Redis; documented libraries also include Jedis, Redisson, redis-py, node_redis, and go-redis. Its data APIs cover strings, lists, hashes, sets, sorted sets, geo operations, HyperLogLog, bitmaps, ACLs, pub/sub, transactions, and Lua scripting. Garnet can store datasets larger than memory on local or cloud storage and supports checkpointing and recovery. Multi-node mode provides sharding, state migration, and replication. Developers can register C# data structures and read-modify-write operations through its custom operator framework. TLS/SSL and password-based RESP authentication are supported. DiskANN vector database support and Bf-Tree range indexes are marked preview. Garnet is MIT-licensed, but is not intended as a fully compatible Redis replacement and does not support Redis modules. The self-hosted plan is free; you manage infrastructure, updates, and operations. The managed Azure Cosmos DB Garnet Cache is in expanded Private Preview, with no price listed.
