Redis Monitoring • Open source core

Your Redis slowlog
rolled over. Again.

BetterDB persists your Redis slowlog, command history, and client analytics - so you can debug incidents hours later, not just right now. Works across Redis, Valkey, cloud, and self-hosted, with migrations in any direction.

No performance impactMigrate in any directionAgent-ready

Or self-host:

claude mcp add betterdb -- \
  npx @betterdb/mcp betterdb-mcp \
  --autostart --persist

Adds BetterDB as an MCP server to Claude Code. Starts monitoring automatically.

Then ask Claude about your database health, slow queries, or memory usage.

Or use BetterDB Cloud, no setup required →

See what's actually happening inside your Redis instance

Historical data that survives a log rotation. Client-level attribution. Automatic anomaly detection.

See what's actually happening inside your Valkey or Redis instance

Historical data that survives a log rotation. Client-level attribution. Automatic anomaly detection.

BetterDB Slowlog pattern analysis showing pattern distribution, command breakdown and key prefix breakdown with historical date range filter

500 slow queries, 114 unique patterns, 19 command types - across any historical time range. The evidence that used to disappear after a log rotation.

Everything you need to understand your Redis instance

Deep insights with minimal overhead. Works with Redis today, Valkey-ready when you migrate.

Everything you need to understand your Valkey or Redis instance

Deep insights into your Valkey or Redis deployment with minimal overhead.

Anomaly Detection

Automatic detection of unusual patterns across memory, CPU, and connections.

Historical Analytics

Query what happened at 3am, not just what's happening now.

Cluster Visualization

Interactive topology graphs, slot heatmaps, and migration tracking.

ACL Audit Trail

Track who accessed what for compliance and debugging.

Slowlog & COMMANDLOG

Pattern analysis across persisted slow queries and full command history. Valkey 8.1+ COMMANDLOG captures every command, not just the slowest ones.

Key Analytics

Analyze key patterns by namespace and key type.

Client Analytics

See which clients consume resources. Detect unusual buffer sizes and connection spikes.

Prometheus & Webhooks

107 Prometheus metrics plus Slack, email, and webhook notifications.

Vector Workload Analytics

FT.SEARCH ops/sec and latency over time, per-index health with alerts for indexing failures, backfill progress, and deleted-doc growth. Built for teams running RAG and semantic search in production.

Vector Search

Inspect vector indexes, browse embeddings, and find semantically similar entries with similarity scores.

Cache Proposals

Proposal queue and audit trail for agent-submitted cache optimizations. Review, edit, and approve threshold and TTL changes directly in BetterDB Monitor.

MCP Server

Full observability and cache intelligence tools from any MCP-compatible client - Claude Code, Cursor, IDEs. Agents read cache state and propose optimizations directly.

Inference Pipeline Latency

Per-operation P50/P95/P99 profiles for FT.SEARCH, reads, and writes. Per-index SLA thresholds with webhook breach alerts - know before users do.

Hot Key Tracking

Top-50 keys by access frequency with rank movement over time. Spot what's climbing before it becomes a bottleneck.

Latency Monitoring

Per-event latency history across P50/P95/P99. Know when your instance started slowing down, not just that it is.

CPU & I/O Threads

Per-thread I/O metrics and CPU utilization charts, including Valkey 8.x I/O thread breakdowns.

Migration

Analyze compatibility, move data, and validate results across Redis, Valkey, cloud, and self-hosted - in any direction.

Throughput Forecasting

Growth rate trend and ceiling-based ops/sec forecasting. Get alerted before you hit capacity, not after.

Built for humans and agents alike

Investigate incidents yourself with a full UI - or point your agent at BetterDB and walk away.

For humans

You investigate

Full dashboard, slowlog pattern analysis, anomaly detection, client attribution, and vector search - everything you need to find what went wrong and why, with data that persists beyond the log rotation.

Our goal: zero Redis hacks

If you've ever written a custom script, stitched together three tools, or just accepted that something wasn't observable - we want to hear about it. Tell us what's missing. We'll build it, and the next person won't have to figure it out themselves.

Evaluating a move from Redis to Valkey?

BetterDB is the only monitoring tool that works across both — and gives you Valkey-native visibility (COMMANDLOG, per-thread I/O, SLOT-STATS) that no Redis tool can provide.
