In this episode our two hosts discuss the recent
license change in a NoSQL data base known a the Remote
Dictionary Server, aka Redis. Given the fact that this podcast
probably wouldn't exist without this company never mind code
base (as Martin and Chris met at this company when it was still
known as Redislabs), brace yourself for a riveting trip down
memory lane never mind fasten your seat belts for that ride in
the Redis DeLorean when our two hosts discuss the implications
never mind future of that database...
