What will you build?

Redis powers everything from simple caching to complex real-time systems. Pick a use case and start building.

Job Queues

Background jobs with BullMQ, Sidekiq, or Celery. Reliable processing at any scale.

Caching

Speed up your app 10-100x. Cache database queries, API responses, sessions.

Real-Time

Pub/Sub for live notifications, chat, and collaborative features.

Rate Limiting

Protect your APIs from abuse. Sliding windows, token buckets, and more.

Shopping Carts

Fast, expiring carts that sync across devices. Handle Black Friday traffic.

Leaderboards

Real-time rankings with sorted sets. Perfect for games and competitions.

Distributed Locks

Coordinate across servers. Prevent race conditions in distributed systems.

Geospatial

Find nearby locations, calculate distances, geo-fencing for delivery apps.

Explore all use cases

Works with your stack

Drop-in compatible with any Redis client. Here's how simple it is.

Node.js
import Redis from 'ioredis'
const redis = new Redis(
process.env.REDIS_URL
)
// Cache a user
await redis.setex(
'user:123',
3600,
JSON.stringify(user)
)
Python
import redis
import os
r = redis.from_url(
os.environ['REDIS_URL']
)
# Add to a queue
r.lpush(
'jobs',
json.dumps(job_data)
)
Go
import "github.com/redis/go-redis/v9"
rdb := redis.NewClient(
&redis.Options{
Addr: os.Getenv("REDIS_URL"),
},
)
// Increment a counter
rdb.Incr(ctx, "page:views")

Developers love Arctickey

Join hundreds of teams who've simplified their Redis infrastructure.

"Switched from Upstash to Arctickey for our BullMQ queues. Setup took 2 minutes, and we finally have our data in the EU where it belongs. Performance is identical."

Marcus Lindberg
Marcus Lindberg
CTO @ Kvittr

"The docs are actually useful. Found working code for rate limiting in 5 minutes instead of piecing together Stack Overflow answers."

Sofia Andersson
Sofia Andersson
Backend Developer @ Flowstate

"We needed Redis for our Next.js app but didn't want to manage infrastructure. Arctickey just works. Haven't thought about it since setup."

Erik Johansson
Erik Johansson
Founder @ Plannr

"Finally, a Redis provider that doesn't require a PhD in cloud infrastructure to set up. Copy connection string, paste, done."

Anna Svensson
Anna Svensson
Full-Stack Developer @ Indie Hacker

"Our compliance team was thrilled. Swedish company, EU data centers, DPA ready. Made our GDPR audit so much easier."

Johan Berg
Johan Berg
Head of Engineering @ MedTech Solutions

"Moved 3 projects from Redis Cloud. The migration was literally just changing the connection string. Zero downtime."

Lisa Ström
Lisa Ström
DevOps Engineer @ Byggtech

"Sub-millisecond latency for our real-time features. Users don't notice the database, which is exactly what we want."

"Support actually responds. Asked a question at 10pm, had a working solution by morning. Try that with AWS."

Questions?

Is it really Redis-compatible?
Yes! We use Valkey, the open-source Redis fork maintained by the Linux Foundation. All your existing Redis clients and libraries work without changes.
How fast can I get started?
About 30 seconds. Sign up, create a database, copy your connection string, and you're live. No sales calls, no enterprise contracts.
What's the free tier like?
64 MB memory, 10 connections, daily backups. Perfect for side projects and development. It sleeps after 14 days of inactivity but wakes instantly on first request.
Can I use BullMQ/Sidekiq/Celery?
Absolutely. Any Redis-based queue library works out of the box. Just point it at your Arctickey connection string.
Where is my data stored?
European data centers (Germany). We're a Swedish company, so your data is protected by EU law and never leaves Europe.
Can I migrate from another provider?
Yes! Just create a database and update your connection string. If you have data to migrate, reach out and we'll help.
