Next-gen caching with Memorystore for Valkey 9.0, now GA

Google Cloud announces the general availability of Memorystore for Valkey 9.0, delivering major performance gains and new developer-facing features for high-throughput, low-latency workloads.

• •Pipeline memory prefetching extends prefetching to all operations within a pipeline simultaneously, boosting overall throughput by up to 40%.
• •Zero copy responses for large requests eliminates internal memory copying, yielding up to 20% higher throughput.
• •SIMD optimizations accelerate BITCOUNT and HyperLogLog operations by up to 200%.
• •Hash field expiration (HEXPIRE, HEXPIREAT, HTTL, etc.) allows individual fields within a hash to have independent TTLs, removing the need to split logical objects into multiple keys.
• •DELIFEQ enables atomic conditional deletes for safer distributed locking without Lua scripting, and polygon-based GEOSEARCH enables precise geospatial queries.
