Download, Install and Run Redis 3.2.1 Port for Windows As always, you should develop your code on a non-open, trusted network that is behind a firewall. This blog post expects that you want to run Redis on your developer machine for development purposes only. Note: There have been many security fixes and other improvements since version 3.2.1, so I highly recommend against running older versions of Redis in production. That said, newer versions of Redis are backward compatible, so if you don’t need new commands, then this 3.2.1 version of Redis might work for your development purposes. It’s over two years old and has some drawbacks, so the link from the redis.io Downloads page has been removed. There is, however, a 3.2.1 version of Redis that was ported to Windows by MSOpenTech.

Officially, Redis is not supported on Windows.

In a future post, I will explain how to run Redis in a Docker container. In this post, I explain how to run Redis on earlier versions. In part 1 of this “Redis on Windows” series, I explain how to run Redis on Windows 10 via the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). Today there is one way to develop with Redis natively on Windows 8.1 (and earlier versions of Windows), and that is with an unsupported port of Redis 3.2.1 for Windows. What isn’t obvious, however, is how to install Redis on Windows so you can develop applications that use Redis. Even if you access Redis remotely (ex: Redis Enterprise Cloud), you still need a Redis client compiled for your local Windows machine. Of course, there are many ways to slice the data, but it suffices to say A LOT of you reading this post are using Windows right now. Every year Stack Overflow shares its developer survey, and every year Windows is the most popular OS for development, and Visual Studio is the most popular IDE.

It’s an open secret that more developers code on Windows than any other OS.
