...What? This is Redis. Linux doesn't really benefit from this (aside from being an OS that can host Redis)

It was a very popular nosql key-value store. Used massively for caching, certainly web apps in general.

It was relicensed a few years ago to no longer be FOSS.
Pretty sure the FOSS fork that is now widely used is Valley.
