Installation

DiceDB is a redis-compliant, reactive, scalable, highly available, unified cache optimized for modern hardware.

We are looking for Early Design Partners, so, if you want to evaluate DiceDB, block our calendar. always up for a chat.

Note: DiceDB is still in development and it supports a subset of Redis commands. So, please do not use it in production. But, feel free to go through the open issues and contribute to help us speed up the development.

Setting up DiceDB server

The easiest way to get started with DiceDB is using Docker by running the following command.

Terminal window
docker run -p 7379:7379 dicedb/dicedb --enable-watch

The above command will start the DiceDB server running locally on the port 7379 and you can connect to it using DiceDB CLI and SDKs.

Setting up CLI

The best way to connect to DiceDB is using DiceDB CLI and you can install it by running the following command

Terminal window
sudo su
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DiceDB/dicedb-cli/refs/heads/master/install.sh | sh

If you are working on unsupported OS (as per above script), you can always follow the installation instructions mentioned in the dicedb/cli repository.
